I was about to order a wheel package. Unfortunately, the $80 rebate on tires ends in a few days. However, I spoke with someone yesterday and he said it should be corrected within a day or two. We shall see.

I might just order tires this weekend and figure out the rims later. I assume 18x8 or 18x8.5, so I'm going with 225/45/18 (smallest based on OEM size that I think will fit w/o stretching).

I really wanted to run 17's, but I am not sure if that will be possible. Tire Rack is now telling me they don't know when wheels will be listed. They said definitely not this month.

So, no 17's or 18x8 will fit? I really didn't want to run 18's or anything too wide for the winter.

Wheel fitment for 2018 STi
Quote:
Exactly. The shape and contour of the barrel and the spokes also impacts clearance. Model X wheel may clear the caliper and wheel weights but model Y with the same specs may not. |

I should have specified all Rotas, not all wheels. Wheeldude stated 18x8.5 w/ et44 or et48 fit. So, I was asking if it is for all Rotas in those sizes since it wasn't specified.

Looks like they are wrong. Not sure if I can trust anything Wheeldude says. What are you going to get instead?

Very odd. Those are 5x100 and it’s the only Rota that even mentions the 2018. The DPT which show fitting the 2018 makes no mention in the description. I’ll have to call them and WD. |

This is frustrating not knowing what (if any) decent options outside of spending a ton of cash I'm going to have for winter wheels.
I can score a set of 08-12 STI Enkei wheels for 700 bucks but I was really hoping to spend less than that. I might just do it so I can get some tires and be done with it. |

I called Mach V (fastwrx.com) and they said that the G-Force 18x8.5 +48 did not fit the 2018 STI. They made it sound like the physical wheel was put on the car and it didn't clear.
However, I don't know what is going on with their website. They say the 18x8.5 Rota Gravel don't fit any STI since at least 2008...which is false. They also don't show the DPT fitting if you search first by 2018 STI. However, there is a picture of it fitting. If you look up the wheel and THEN filter by 2018 STI, it fits. Very odd. I contacted Wheeldude and they are going to get back to me to confirm the G-Force. |
