Car Info: 2006 STI
Forgive the newbie question. I'm currently looking for 18's for my 2006 STI and have narrowed the list downt to two....one being the Formula Mesh. Given the extremely low offset (of the wheels in the pictures), are these safe on a completely stock 2006 (long term)? Would any other adjustments be necessary or could I simply slap these on and go for years to come. I know Rota makes formula mesh's in a higher offset. From the forums perspective, which direction should I go (35mm or the other offset).

i am surprised they fit with a 35mm offset?

would it not have to be a 48mm to clear the brakes on a sti?
