BBS Wheels of a WRX SSTi
This is maybe a stupid question but I need to know if the stock 18's BBS of a STi will fit a RX8??? I am planing on using them on my RX8 until my lease is over.

Ya 2005 STI on up is 5x114.3. They are a good offset for the RX8 so that is fine as well.
The only thing to consider is the centerbore on the Subaru. I know the 5x100 is like a 56 or something. The 5x114.3 PCD i'm not sure about. Email me and i'll make a call to find out.

I too have never seen a 18" factory STI wheel either. They would be 17x8.0.
THanks, Rishie

I think a better option would be the EVO8 Enkei Wheel simply because it's a better offset for the RX8 and is hubcentric for the 8 as well. hmmmmm. But they're not BBS's. lol.

and the Evo8 brake caliper sticks out a lot farther than the RX-8 so you won't likely have an interference issue with an aftermarket BBK, found that out when I tried to install some RX-8 Enkei wheels on a buddy's Evo8, was a no-go due to hitting the OE Brembo caliper
