Biggest stock rims on a subaru?
Searching gets many opinions and mixed results. Looking for definitive answers on a few things. I'm thinking about changing up the look on my car.

1. What are the largest stock Subaru 5x100 diameter and width rims.
2. Out of the largest, which are the best looking in your opinion.
3. Any up for sale/trade?

No sir, but that's an easy fix for the right set of rims. I'd roll em if needed. Can it be that any stock suby rims would necessitate a roll?

I would think the 2004 STi BBS's would be biggest stock rim that Subaru offered in the 5x100

No idea, I'm sure most rims that came on other models were not as big and not fully forged like the BBS!
