Are there any good sites that will let you search wheels by size?

Kinja'd!!!

Tirerack is great, but I want winter wheels and they refuse to let you search for smaller than stock wheel size or width and that is mildly infuriating!

I just want 16x7 on 5x114.3 with an approximate 32mm offset wheels is that such a hard ask?

Never seen a site that lets you search by specifics like that. I usually just turn to googling the size, bolt pattern, and offset I want and see what pops up

OZ’s (who makes sparco wheels) own website refuses to give me a size chart of what sizes they make their wheels in!

That is insane!

Maybe try searching for a base Impreza on tire rack?

Summit racing does. Not sure if they sell any wheels you’d want.

Just looked and don’t have 32mm offset

Is it for the ‘15-16 WRX as pictured?

If so you need 17s to fit over the front brakes.

If you have a 15 wrx 16s don’t fit on the front, which i why they don’t let you search by them. I have one and and set of 16s with snows on them and was pretty disappointed by this fact.

I didn’t know that.

Which wheels do you have?

I’ve seen a set of 15’s that specifically said they’d fit and I made a bad assumption apparently.

Really? I saw a set of 15’s that specifically said they’d fit, guess that was a lie, thanks for the heads up.

My search continues...

have 2 differnt one. one set was a OEM mazda protege and those didn’t even come close the clearing the caliper. the other set was one of those cheap alloy wheels that tire rack sell and with the design the have, having the spokes out a lot, either just fit or just didn’t. didn’t want to risk damaging a new car.

i could see maybe some kind of 16s fitting if they are just the right shape, but i have doubts about 15s.

well thanks for the heads up, guess I’m buying larger, more expensive winter wheels and tires.

Thus my search continues...
