18×9.5 Wheels on a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STi

4 documented builds

Show me evidence about using this wheel size on this exact vehicle year. Documented Modified1 builds are observed use — not universal fit confirmation, not a safe offset range, and not a no-rub guarantee.

Evidence summary

  • Documented builds: 4
  • Observed range in our build database: ET22 to ET28
  • Most frequently documented tire: 255/35R18 (2 builds)
  • Axle context: In our build database: 4 as part of a staggered setup; 3 front-only for this size; 1 with this size on both axles. Rear-only or front-only counts are not treated as square.

Documented offsets

  • ET22 3 builds
  • ET28 2 builds (evidence only — no dedicated page)

Evidence pages for documented offsets

Counts include only builds where offset is actually recorded. Missing offsets are not treated as ET0. Linked offsets meet the size+offset evidence threshold.
