STI RE070s will rub unless you're running really narrow coilovers and have well-rolled fenders. They are really wide for 225s.

I love those wheels. That said, what is the point of a 17x8 if you're going to put 205s on- going for that euro tuner look?

And the people said: Get a lowering kit! Wheels kick ass but that ride height looks like crap.

Lies. I ran RE070's on my 94. Rolled the fenders, but they fit.

04 USDM STi wheels are 17x7.5
05,06 USDM STi wheels are 17x8

The 04's are the only ones that will fit without hub swappings.
