Tyre's for 18s
 
Hi, whats the best option for 18s on a bugeye.. im thinking 225, 40, or 225, 45

i put some 18s on with 35 profiles and they looked smaller than my 17s which have 215,45

Standard on the FSTi is 225/45/18, so I would have thought that's maybe too much profile for an Impreza.

Many who run 18's on an Impreza go for 225/40, myself included.

225/40/18 is the standard for 18s

You can run 235/40/18 for putting a bit more rubber down. going to 225/35 would be smaller than the original radius of the standard rim/tyre combo

Banstead Stig 31-03-2016 07:15 PM

Are they OEM FSTi wheels?

Type-r-russ 31-03-2016 07:31 PM

How much ?

lockheed 31-03-2016 08:21 PM

yes their oem . one has slight kerbing,other than that their pretty good ,(just gone to oz ultra leggera .)I could bring them to the meet on the tenth at polegate ,just be happy to get something back on them to help pay for my new short block! I really don't know what their worth ?

Banstead Stig 31-03-2016 09:12 PM

I'm biased, but they're good looking wheels in my opinion.

I'd be intrigued to see them on an Impreza.

lockheed 31-03-2016 10:02 PM

I'm biased too they look great , id change them back if I could afford it . my new ones are horrid to clean and spokes are much more open and I can see my discs and calipers decaying before very eyes!

Banstead Stig 01-04-2016 07:04 AM

A set went recently on subaruforester.org I think, which might give you a benchmark for what they're worth (look in the European Marketplace).

My second set cost me about £500 with reasonable tyres about two or three years ago. They were in decent condition, but needed (and still need!) refurbishing.
