Customize Your Subaru With Premium OEM Wheels
The wheels serve as the fundamental structural link between your vehicle's drivetrain and the pavement, translating the rotational torque of your Boxer engine into forward momentum. Properly maintained rolling hardware ensures your Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system distributes power flawlessly across varying terrains.
Best Ways to Upgrade Your Subaru's Wheels
Elevate the handling dynamics and racing-inspired style of your Subaru WRX with these premium rims:
1. STI Forged Aluminum Upgrades
Install high-performance STI forged units that drastically reduce rotational mass, resulting in quicker acceleration and sharper response.
2. Aggressive Wilderness Edition Alloys
Swap standard street-focused designs for matte black, heavy-duty rims.
3. Larger Diameter Plus-Sizing
Upgrade from a 17-inch to an 18-inch genuine factory design to accommodate lower-profile tires, dramatically stiffening the vehicle's cornering posture.
4. Specialized Winter Wheel Packages
Purchase a dedicated secondary set of robust, narrower steel wheels optimized to cut through deep snow.
5. Aerodynamic Eco-Focused Designs
Equip specific hybrid-trim alloys featuring specialized flat faces that reduce turbulent aerodynamic drag and measurably improve highway fuel efficiency.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the correct lug nut torque for a Subaru?
- Most modern Subaru models require the lug hardware to be torqued to exactly 89 foot-pounds (120 Nm) in a crisscross pattern.
- What is wheel offset (ET)?
- Offset is the distance from the exact centerline of the barrel to the mounting pad; Subaru typically utilizes high positive offsets around +48mm to +55mm.
- Can a bent aluminum rim be repaired?
- Specialized shops can heat and hydraulically press minor bends out of the inner barrel, but cracked spokes render the unit permanently destroyed.
