16 7.5 ET 35 will they fit?

Post by crust productions.com »

I have a 94 legacy wagon with stock ride hieght . Will these wheels fit? I know they will actually fit but wasn't sure of the offset? They don't have tires on them yet . Figured I would put a 195/60 on them as I drive alot of snow and the narrower the better in my opinion. The wheels in question came off a 5x100 vw . What is the center bore on my 94 legacy?
Thanx

35+ offset is a little low. Hopefully some others with direct experience can comment.

ALittle low?
Meaning they will rub on the underside of the shock tower or the wheel well.
Looks like in a 16" tire Im going to have to run a 205 at minimal.

Stock offset is around +55mm. Low, meaning they will rub against the wheel well.

the lower offset means the rims will stick out towards the fender more.

for example. i had stock 55 offset wheels on, swapped to a 42et whick means the wheels stuck out 13 mm further.

yours would be 20mm.

195 is to skinny for a 7.5 rim.

you may have some luck though. but try a 215 tire and get your fenders rolled.

also stock rear struts suck, i believe a wrx wagon rear setup will raise the back end and stiffen you up.
