Oh, yeah. I got my Fozzy today! Pictures tomorrow when it's light out. I'm so in love with this thing already.

My 9.3 cups EJ22 makes me feel like my **** is 2.8 decimeters!

Anyone running 17x9 on a legacy? Tirerack is coming out with some 17x9 RPF1's with an unknown offset as of now. I am thinking somewhere in the +35 area.

 

I think they will fit, but the extra insurance will make it easier to spend $2k on them.

This is stock 205 rally tire I use vs the 255 star spec.

My wife's impreza has 17x7.5's w/ 225's. they look so skinny next to my wheels. Not sure why but the extra .5" fills out the wheel gap a lot better. And my fenders are rolled. No running.

I am running 17x8 +45 Rota Boosts with a 245/50-17 Star Spec, its almost perfectly flush with the body and looks damn good. I think that extra inch will cause a little rubbing if you are lowered but nothing you cant alleviate with some fender rolling/pulling and a little inner fender trimming perhaps?

 

Also, if you run a 245 tire on a 9" wheel it will still only be about as wide as mine now. Just more stretch.

Thanks guys!

 

I want 255 or 265's lol I hate the stretched look.

 

LSD motorsports is doing a group buy on 17x9.5 +38's, I'm not sure if they will fit though...

 

The think that concerns me is that Johann (girodisc widebody legacy) had 18x9.5 +15 and those poked a ton, I don't think dropping the offset to +35 will help that much, it is only 3/4"...

Agreed, the gopro video i have you can see me shoot down into the corner and then accelerate in the middle and then you hear his tires screeching behind me as he tries to carry the same entry speed. :lol: of course, as soon as he hits the straight away im gazing at his taillights again lol
