no… +45 is what you want… if you want it to look pushed out… get a different rim with an aggressive lip to it.

Chuck - I fit +28’s on the STI w/o rolling the fenders. They will rub if I hit any major potholes/imperfections in the road…but who cares? Worth it for the ‘hey my tires sit out there with me fenders’ look. The wheels I have on the way are +38 and should move them back in just enough to not hit when I hit potholes…I think STI fenders are 10mm wider then your WRX fenders though, and I’m not sure what the setup on the WRX studs off the brakes are in compro to the STI.

My wheels are et40, this season I’ll be running 10mm spacers making my effective wheel offset +30. Hoping to get more of a flush look but to get totally flush I’d need to roll the fenders and go with about a 20mm spacer out back, and a 15 at least up front, would need even longer studs for that though so 10mm it is.
