legacy wagon with wrx 2002 rims

[aludeman]

I got some wrx 02 rims friday. In my mind I thought they would be kind of ok, but now that they are on there they don't look bad at all. Everyone and their mother is selling there '02 rims so it's worth the price. although i admit a wider rim would be nicer. i'm running the stock rubber 205x55x16 bridgestone re92s and they have a bit more grip than the stock 195x60x15 =] michelin mtx(?)

Have those rims on my 1994 Turbo Sedan. Same feeling. More impressed
than I thought I'd be. By looking under the car, I think I can go
215's easy, amybe even 225's which is what I really want come next
tire purchase. If it's borderline, can't we just put 1/8" spacers in
there? Does that screw up geometry? Wondering.

I knew they'd look good!

WRX and RS wheels look much better on the Legacy than they do on
their original car.

Actually it's because our cars are so good looking that they really bring
the standard of the wheel up to a much better vehicle )

One word of caution on the 225 with these rims. They are a 6.5 inch
width rim, and you may be hard pressed to find 225s that will go on
there without being too deformed.
215 would be as wide as I would go and you wont have any (possibly)
major fitment issues.

not to mention, reduced handling as the 'too wide' tyre squirms on the rim....
