fitting GOLD WRX STI Rims on an 1st Gen I30
 

I've been presented with the delightful opportunity of picking a set for less than 400$ with tires.

Wheelspecs-
17x8 +53
tires are 225/45/17


question is what size spacer would I need to run this?

also, the centerbore seems to be small for the nissan hubcenter.
would the spacer take care of this? or do i have to get it drilled out to spec?

Wow thats a high offset. To pull it off and get closer to the fender, at least 15mm are in order.

<--- Wants those wheels for his subaru

i think somebody about a year ago tried fitting these (bore related problem as the OP mentioned) and was disappointed...i hope for your sake you get them to fit

That offset is extremely high. Gonna need to run huge spacers 20-25mm just to get them close to the fender. Now, as for the center bore of the rims, they'll have to be bore'd out for sure.
