Work Wheels Emotion D9R 18x10.5 +15 specs

The wheels are 18-inch in diameter and 10.5 inches wide with a +15 offset, in the 5x114.3 bolt pattern the Subaru WRX STI uses.

A +15 offset on a 10.5-inch wide wheel puts the wheel face in an aggressive position close to the fender. Lower offset moves the wheel outward; higher offset tucks it in.

Suspension, stance and clearance

It rides on Air Lift Performance air suspension, so it can lay low parked and raise up to drive.

No rubbing at all, front or rear, no spacers, overfenders or a widebody. 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: tucked. The wheels sit inside the fender line. Flush fitment on a Subaru WRX STI comes down to the offset and width above; copy them and you get the same result.
