05 sti bbs on 05 evo viii and visa versa...

stock wheels that a narrower than the evo ones are stock. I think the stis are only 7.5?

I’m not sure the spacer will work for the hub unless you got a retardedly wide spacer.

what? 05 sti wheels are 17x8 and so are the evo mr wheels. the 04 sti has 17x7.5

did you read this post before you edited yours? i just told you that 05 STi wheels are 17x8

@newman

I’m running 18X9JJ ET+42 on my sti. That’s a 6.153 backspacing and 2.846 frontspacing

OEM Evo wheels are 17X8JJ ET+38. That’s a 5.496 backspacing and 2.503 frontspacing.

So the Evo wheels will fit on an STi (assuming the hub is right), you just need to run a ton of camber on the sti (i am running -4 degrees and replace all 4 tires every 4000 miles) The evo would need a spacer (14mm at most), and longer wheel studs to run the sti wheels.

thanks for all the exact mathematical info newman

why would you camber so much?
4k for a set of tires is crazy
