Some people have gotten lucky, like I did on my old car. Some people rub with a 205/55/16.

Most of the problems I see with rubbing are on the pre-facelift Legacy's.

Like I said, a 235/45/17 fit in a 17x7.5" wheel with a +48 offset on my 94 Sport Sedan with Impreza AGX's.

A 225/45/17 RE070 fit on my stock struts.

I DID roll my fenders.

Because it fit on my car does NOT mean it will fit on your car.

A 235 on a 7" rim isn't a great idea, but it's not a bad idea. I've seen 275 width Hoosiers on 2004 STi wheels (7.5" wide).
2009 Outback 2.5XT. 5MT. Satin White Pearl.
2009 Impreza 2.5i Premium. Blue.

Would it be possible to fit a 17x8 ET48 wheel when using GC struts?

I was kinda looking into the Rota Boost wheels, and they don't come in 16" sizes or anything less than 8" wide...... :(
