Nice Subie,,,,,,

Seriously not my style but this is a true car fanatic, good on ya brother. That ride found a lucky home. Definitely prefer the newer look.

modification do you need to do to get them to fit?
Me want!
small spacers (front or rear.. I can't remember..) because they're 18x8, they rub struts and junk.

plus a very controlled ride height. violate that no greater than a 1:1 wheel gap to tire sidewall height 'golden rule' and the wheel gap ***** will be all over you. With a 215/35-18 tire it's really tough to get the car down that low and be tolerable still.

Definitely, not sayin otherwise. They're beautiful wheels, albeit a little big looking on the P5. The sedans handle it better somehow.

That is true, I'm not sure why but rims look bigger on the P5 (?)

17's looks like 18 or 19s sometimes, so RX8 18s look monsterous!

I agree, they do look nicer on the sedan for some reason.

on the sedan you don't need spacers, just bolt them on and go. on the p5 is were you need spacers in the back.
