Someone selling me cheap set of wheels, 19x8.5, 25 offset... Will this fit an 04 Sti?

 

I think the offset is too low for the 04 wheel bearing.... Subiedude would be the best to call on that one.

 

Subydude? What does he know..he's a freakin Rota dealer??!!

hahaha...loko lang Joe

 

Don't think that'll work, unfortunately.

 

it would fit if u run camber and rolled fenders. should be easy on the front but kinda hard in the rear.

also if ur down to run aggressive fitment.

tire selection will also be a factor. on a 8.5 wheel u would have to stretch some skinny tires.

all in all its not worth it on a 8.5

 

saw this on subaru agressive wheel thread...

dude running 18x8.5 +23 with spacers...not nineteen, but lower offset...

 

hey Irvin ... i believe the offset is too low for the 5x100 wheel bearings ... eventually you would be needing to take your wheel bearings to a machine shop. a lot sooner than someone would normally would.

 

shoot as long as you got coilovers and adj camber plates DO IT! shoot it's worth a shot. run 225-30-19 sized tires and ur good to go.

 

serious question here: so who's actually replaced their wheel bearings because they were running low offset? all this talk about week bearings.... i never see any posts about anyone actually replacing them...

 

55k miles and my wheel bearings needs replacing and i know a few people that replaced theirs around the same mileage.

 

i replaced mine cuz i hit something. haha

 

Thanks for all your input.. I was selling my hardtop for my Miata and someone wants to trade a new'ish BBS LM in that size...figure I'd ask first...but hell, it's a $4000 set of wheels for my $1400 hardtop.

 

umm make sure it REAL! there are a lot of bbs lm reps out on the market

 

knowing irvin, they're real

 

It will fit. You'll need to add camber to tuck them and roll the fenders. But over all, it shouldn't stick out past the fender more than 1/2 inch.
