Hello. I'm not the best on figuring this stuff out. If there's a cheat sheet, let me know. I was wondering if anyone knows... I have a 2022 Legacy Limited. I've noticed I can get nice WRX take off wheels in a similar model year for fairly inexpensive. I like the black to go with my black Legacy. Does anyone know if these will fit? I have the 5X114.3 thing down, but possible off-set and caliper clearance is my question. My wheels are 18X7.5 and I'm noticing the WRX wheels are 18X8.5. Thanks!
 
I have a different model and acquired /aftermarket used wheels with winter tires. Those wheels (winter wheels and tires) came from the Audi Q3. To prove and fit them, the front wheel (large calipers and rotors) was removed and mounted the Q3 rim. It was measured for off-set and worked perfect.
Use two straight edges to measure. I needed proof these rims fit and capable to mount TPMS.
With added TPMS and the correct OEM winter dimensions, They worked perfect.
Always, always, always retorque the wheels to the correct specifications at least twice (after a road test).

In your case, the Subaru dealer has the exact dimensions or get them from the actual wheel.

The best fit and no speedometer changes was with the correct tires and circumference.
