Please don't tempt him. He'll DESTROY that wagon trying to run that B.S. The fronts will fit with a sedan front end set up but the rears will NEVER fit without massive amounts of stretching, stupid negative camber and a retarded fender roll/pull. Will RUIN that wagon....
Now if he picks up some flares from LIC.... mo powa to him! Can run mad tire on those bad boys.

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I'm still not sure if imma do the 10's or 9.5's but it's gonna be one or the other. I'm sure You guys know I love stretched tires with poke =). Lol. And I'm not sure if it's a former club members car? The guy I got it from didn't have it on the forums when I asked him.

surprised no one asked this but how much did it cost you? and how come you dont have the specifics on all the mods. im guessing it must've been a killer deal to pick it up without checking everything out first.

If you try to stuff 10's under there you're in for a world of issues. Especially if you slam it. There just isn't enough room under the car. Even 9.5's are gonna require serious stretch.

The car has no mods besides the suspension and wheels. Engine is bone stock. Not even an exhaust lol. I ran carfax and it cleared out. And yeah. I won't mention the price but it was a fair deal. =).
The I can make the 10's fit. I'd just need to run -3 camber and run a 225 tire. Same **** as my sti with more camber. Ryan was running 9.5 and it was working out fine.

Yeah it fits. Doesn't mean it fits "right." But you know my stance on that. LOL!
If you want to run that kind of camber on a wagon camber plates are a must. And offset has to be perfect or you're gonna hit the struts. And even still, you're gonna have to roll the ever loving hell out of the fenders.
If you're gonna run that much camber in the rear and not very much in the front I'd stay far far away from a front sway bar. Car is gonna understeer like crazy. Big rear sway and no front sway will help some.
With camber bolts you can get over -2 in the front. I've never tried to push the rear out that far because I like more camber in the front but you won't hit anywhere near 3 with bolts. So you can probably get away with bolts in the front but you'll need plates in the rear.

I'm gonna probably go stance gr pro so they come with camber plates all around like my Sti setup. This car is basically gonna be done for looks. Imma have justin roll and pull the front and rear as much as possible.

Is that the same justin that does the paintless dent removal? If so let me know when you do it. I have a dent I need looked at. How much he charge? I'd like to roll just the lips. No pull. Just a little so I can run 245's.

Swing by my office next week and I can tell you.
More than likely it's on KYB AGX or sti wagon struts with RCE springs. Those look like Rota Gravels. Yeah 18's.
Looks like you got an awesome start to a wagon there. I want STI splitters so bad. If you dump those wheels let me know. If my deal on the gramlights fall through I want those.
If you're looking for coil overs look at IPOZESTU thread in classifieds. He's got some KILLER ones for sale right now that will fit. Along with some other goodies that will fit that wagon.
As for widest wheels possible.... please don't roll the ever loving hell out of those fenders and go "hella flush." If you want wide wheels with a purpose get some 17x9's and run 245. You could even run 255 with the right camber setting, offset and without being overly low.
If you have any wagon questions... come on by the office. We'll chat. Get a beer after work.
