first thing i own Subaru legacy 92 I'm from Egypt and this my car
i have rims but it is 14

i want to buy 16 rims
should i go and buy from any store
and what editing should i do to my car or it will fit without any editing
i need advice before buy.....and is 16 rims make any different in kilo meter gauge
forgive me if my question is stupid...

You need 5x100 wheels, FWD offset, a tire shop will be able to help you with it if you're not sure what will fit. Nothing needs to be modified. If you get the right tire size your speedometer won't read any different, here's a reference you can use:

Subarus tend to have pretty high offset. You need something in the +45mm to +55mm range to keep the tire from rubbing.

You should check out the second gen (95-98) legacy gt wheels, they are 16s and look really good. I love them, i would have some on my car but I can't find any right now used. They would be cheaper than aftermarket rims if used and have the right offset.

215/45-16 tires would be the closest to stock on the legacy gt rims

205/50R16 is closer, but we're talking unit percent difference in speedometer readings so it doesn't really matter.

aw what an adorable post, i got a kick out of this.

i like that nissan...like BoostedSubie said the gt wheels would look nice on your car. good luck with the search.
