    Enkei RPF1's: 17x8 35offset, then you can be cool like the 9n3 boys (well, 2 of us).
    Assuming you have pretty close offset compatibility, should work well.

    I can take 1 off for you to test-fit.

    Welcome to our world
    Although if 17" is OK, there's a fair bit of stuff made for Subarus that can fit if you're willing to run spacers.

    Nah I want 18" with big offset. I was looking at time attacks but doesn't look like that's gonna happen. My old s15 had 5x114.3 and so many options. I wish it was the same for the polo

    I should have said 17" or larger (try looking for 5/100 in 15" )
    Subarus run massive offset (in the 50's) so check for 18" wheels that suit WRX's.

    awesome thanks for that.

    Although 50's offset is not massive, that's close to stock offset. I was looking for a low 30's offset or even 20's.
