Work Wheels Emotion CR 2P 18x9.5 +30 specs

The wheels are 18-inch in diameter and 9.5 inches wide with a +30 offset, in the 5x100 bolt pattern the Subaru WRX STI uses.

A +30 offset on a 9.5-inch wide wheel puts the wheel face in a mild push toward the fender. Lower offset moves the wheel outward; higher offset tucks it in.

235/40R18 tires on 18x9.5 wheels

The tire size is 235/40R18: a 235 mm section width with a 40 aspect ratio on the 18-inch wheel, which gives a stretched fit (the tire is narrower than the wheel, which pulls the sidewall in and helps clear the fender).

The owner chose Velozza ZXV. We stock Lexani LXUHP-207 235/40R18 at $86 each in this size, and other 235/40R18 tires through the 235/40R18 tire search.

Suspension, stance and clearance

This Subaru WRX STI is on stock suspension, so the ride height is factory and the fitment you see here works without lowering the car.

No rubbing at all, front or rear, no spacers, rolled fenders. Rolling or pulling the fender is what most owners do once the wheel sits this close; it keeps the tire from catching the lip over bumps.

Stance: flush. The wheel face lines up with the fender. Flush fitment on a Subaru WRX STI comes down to the offset and width above; copy them and you get the same result.
