Hey njwrxman21, they look like skate board wheels,

 

[exkirkwood]

I'm loving that look, are those aftermarket wheels tho? They look similar to stock, but better

 

[njwrxman21]

Looks like red lug nuts but the car looks raised. True?

This isn't my Crosstrek, but I saw it today in the parking lot at Timberline Ski Resort in Oregon. Looked pretty cool, in a utility kind of way (assume they were snow tires). Couldn't tell exactly, but they looked like 17's.

I'm curious, is it possible to put on wider tires on the stock 17s just to give it a little more rugged/sporty look?
225/15/17 are stocks how wide could I go?

Probably could but I don't think it will give you the look ur after. Really would want a wider wheel, with a properly fitted tire.

Not my area of expertise, but i think you might run into problems with running a much wider tire since the side wall is so short. Maybe if you dropped to the 16" wheel you could put something wider. I don't think that you would gain a whole lot from the small width increase you could get.

 

[exkirkwood]

thanks.. how about adding on an offroad tire that adds a little more height?

I see those FJ cruisers around running what appears to be plain stock rims and larger tires, I guess that's kind of the look I'd like

 

[99runner]

The issue is going to be clearance. I know there are some older threads about what the biggest tire you can stuff in the wheel well is. What I plan to do is eventually buy a set of 16 inch wheels with tires that are as close to the stock diameter as possible. This will give a taller side wall while avoiding the issues of clearance and spedo inaccuracy. The down side is I really like the stock wheel, I just wish they had made it in a 16 instead.

 

[exkirkwood]

Thanks, I guess I'll wait around to see what others do... I'm certain someone will be putting on off road tires.

I did speak to a rep from TireRack and he told me I could go as wide as 255, which was a surprise, yet he wouldn't say if I could go up to a 60r

Colleagues at work told me I could probably go as high as 65r but no wider than a 245 so lots of conflicting answers is making this even more confusing. I did find some Toyo Open Country 235/60r/17 which could work I guess, but for now I'll wait around

With such a new vehicle style it is going to take people doing trial and error to find out what can and can't be done. Scuby in another thread posted a picture of some larger tires on his, so people are trying things.

Use this calculator
Problem with Subaru is they have small wheel wells.

May i ask what is the PCD of the wheels? 5x100 or 5x114.3 or other fitment?

 

[MackDaddy1962]

Bolt pattern is 5x100mm, +48mm offset for OE stock wheels.

 

[Jommie]

These were left over after I traded in the Baja Turbo. 225/55-17, just as the stock wheels, but 13mm further out (ET35 vs stock ET48).
