2006 Fozzy Wheel Fitment Q's

[Animal25RS]

What's the widest wheel + tires combo you know of that can be put on a 2006 Fozzy?

Is the front an rear the same or can i fit a wider rim an tire combo on the back?

You can't run staggered because it's awd.  Widest is whatever you feel like you can fit.  You can go with a 18x11, but you'll need flares, lots of camber, and stretched tires. What's your goals?

 

[Animal25RS]

Simple, don't want flares, don't want camber. Just want the most reasonable i can fit.

Ill be puttin 18x8

I'd check out the forester threads on subaruforester.org. Find the wheels/size that you think that looks good and go from there.

It's verys from what you are running for offset as to how wide of rim you can run the rim

 

[Animal25RS]

Well not sure. I'm looking at the wheel in the picture below.

 

[SUBARUDE]

If you stay above 38mm offset you should be able to get the 8.25" wide rim with out rolling the rear quarters

Sweet. Thanks Gabe!

Yah my old rims were +38 and had to roll rear fenders fronts hit the wheel liner on bumps

Yes but your car comes stock with a 55mm offset and foresters come stock with a 48mm so he has a little more wiggle room then your car does

By the way, this reminds me: Hey Gabe, you still got those wrx struts an lowering springs? If so, there's a really good chance that i'll pick them up.

[Animal25RS]

[GClark]

Too much stretch, not enough lows.
