Subaru XV:

The Subaru Crosstrek is a compact crossover SUV produced by Subaru since 2012. It is a successor to the Outback Sport in the United States and Canada, and the Impreza XV globally. Like the Outback Sport, the Crosstrek is a lifted Impreza hatchback with minor differences, though with a more substantial lift than the Outback Sport.
Initially, the vehicle was marketed as the XV globally, and as the XV Crosstrek in the United States and Canada. In 2015, Subaru dropped the XV moniker in the United States and Canada, marketing it simply as the Crosstrek for the 2016 model year and onward. In 2022, Subaru introduced the third-generation model, using the Crosstrek nameplate globally for the first time....(Read more on Wikipedia)

Gosh you are amazing! Thanks for sharing! I already have my setup, but I wish I had all this info a few years ago! So useful!

man, everything i had to learn on my own all in one place

>OEM offset is \~+50 but you can run up to approximately \~+20 safely When I was considering getting after market wheels to go with my new Falkens, I found it very hard to find 17" wheels with an offset matching the OEM +55mm, so I did a fair bit of research on the topic, and what I found out is this: 1. Dealership maintenance department's 'official' stance on this is that only 48-55 offset w

I was looking for this and couldn't find it earlier, so sharing my experience. I have a 2017 with P225/55R17 and 17x7J ET48. Was trying to get another set of rims/wheels for switching between summer and winter tires. Found a set of 2018 crosstrek wheels and tires with P225/60R17 and 17x7J ET55. Put them on today and confirmed the offset difference between ET48 and ET55 didn't impact the wheels
😐 NEUTRAL
Maybe a small edit: I think you can run wheels with a +10 offset. I'm currently running KMC KM708 Bully Wheels with a +10 offset. This is for a 2018 crosstrek

First, thank you OP for this amazing work. As someone who has never done custom wheels/tires before, this is the best crash course I have seen. I've got a super funky question, and from my limited research so far this might work, but was hoping someone with more knowledge could help confirm. I'm absolutely in love with KMC KM545 wheels. They come in 17x8 (oem size) and a 35mm offset. Problem i

WOW this was an awesome post of info. I just recently purchased a 2018 Crosstrek and have been doing tons of research on how to properly change my set up. I have the OEM 17" and am looking into getting the Black Rhino Boxer wheels in 15" which I believe covers the brakes and calipers. I was thinking about doing the Falken Wildpeak 235/75/15 . I know I need to lift my vehicle so by any chance c

sounds like you are looking for a Toyota Prius, not sure how insane the prices on those are, but if you can't get a 2018 one under 20K then don't get one.

Subarus are harder to maintain and reliable as long as you keep the miles low. Once it gets older parts are hard to find and they arent fuel efficient. CX5 is better in every single aspect.
👎 NEGATIVE
I wanted to purchase a 2nd hand Subaru XV but learned of the dreaded EPS issue, it would take 100k ata to replace. Read up ka nalang sa Subaru fb groups. On the Forester XT, it’s great but again, high maintenance cost ang subarus kasi naka AWD and medyo malakas sa gas. Pero grabe sarap i drive. If you’re sticking with Honda, maybe consider getting a CR-V? Or what about the previous generation HR
