Hi,

My friend is thinking to get 20x8.5 offset 45 (front and rear) on his Subaru Legacy 2000 model (non turbo)

Is it possible?

I've seen 20" on a wrx so I'm guessing 20" on a legacy shouldn't be problem??

What I'm concerned is the width 8.5 and more importantly the offset 45.

Can anyone confirm if they will fit no problem?

What tyres profile should I get?

Thanks
Quick reply please

 

anyone can help??

Are you sure/is youf friend sure that these wheels are 5x100? B/C there are tons of wheels that a 20x8.5in, but most (if not all of them) are 5x112, 5x114.5, 5x115 or 5x120. I have no doubt that one could fit dubs on a Legacy (esp if it were an Outback!) b/c there are smaller sized 20in tires today that were not available 2 or 3 years ago.

 

yes they are double pcd: 5x100 and 5x114.3

I'm sure 20" will fit, but just not quite sure 8.5" width and the offset 45 will be fine?
and what tyres profile should I get?

 

I got 18x8.5 +45 on my 05 STi w/ 235/40/18. For 20's i'd go with 225/35/20. Its a pretty low profile so i'd watch out for potholes.
