Subaru 08 Lug Configuration

Divided · 05-20-2008, 05:41 PM

Pretty quick and easy question, I currently have an 05 Altima and I will be switching over to an 08 WRX Hatchback sometime in July. I bought some Aftermarket Rims for my Altima which has the 5 star Lug configuration, looking at WRX it has the same 5 lug star setup. My question is if it is a 5 lug they should fit right? I know I have enough wheel space as my rims are 18", just wondering if the lugs would line up. Thanks for the help!!!

What is the offset on the rims you already have?

there are multiple 5 lug wheel configurations. The offset might be totally different as well. Just because it has five lugs means very little about whither they are compatible or not.

I think it is a 5x114.3 setup. I couldn't readily find and info on the 08 WRX as to what it was however.

08 WRX is 5x100
08 STI is 5x114.3

however the offest is also important to determine fitments.

+40 mm bolt offset

I dunno the offset on the 08s for sure but I'd wager it's close to the 02-07s which was +53... meaning you wouldn't want to use those rims because of the offset alone.

I'm saying the bolt pattern is wrong and the offset is wrong. The rims are not compatible between the two cars.
