Thanks for the info Dexter@tirerack. I planning on getting the Advan's but I have to make sure I send them the rite offset. That is why I want to know the exact number to use. If I send them the wrong offset I'm going to get stuck with rims that don't work for my car. Thanks for the help.

I am running 17x8.5 +45 w/ 245/40/17.
Perfect setup if you ask me. With rolled rear fenders and proper allignment work, my car does not rub at all. 245mm wide tires have plenty of grip is improves the all around handling.

Imprezer: I'm thinking of going that same route. As for it being slower, do you notice any appreciable difference, or are you too busy grinning about the handling to notice
And where are there more pics of your car? I'm tired of squinting at your avatar.

Handling is superb.
I am running ZERO SPORTS coilovers, which I am going to swap back to CUSCO Zero-2's with custom rate springs.
But as is the car handles great. Of course, SureTrack f/r diffs help too.
What I really want to do is to get 2 17x7.5 + 48 RCII's.
Run 17x7.5 w/ 225/45/17 in front and 17x8.5 w/ 255/40/17. Add CUSCO 65/35 Tarmac Gear center LSD and yeeeeeha!
Same rolling diameter. Much crispier steering. 65/35 f/r torque split. That would probably be the ultimate setup. I can even see myself drift with this setup.
As is, 245's all around are nice, but steering is a tad heavy. For quick turns. However, on high speed turns the car is simply on rails.
