ironboy789 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I would like to know if 15" wheels will fit my '98 Forester. (?) My father-in-law has some great mud and snow tires for 15", not 16", wheels. Will thes smaller rims interfere with brakes or steering components? Where do look for these wheels? Anybody................ Thanks, Dan in Milwaukee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I think they'll fit, but it'd be best to just try putting one on a front wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbhrps Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Ironboy789, The only problem will be if the 15 inch rims will clear your front calipers. If they do, and the new wheel offset is the same as your 16 inch wheels, then you're set to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironboy789 Posted July 28, 2005 Author Share Posted July 28, 2005 I'll give it a try. Thanks. These are some serious mud and snow tires, I hate to see them just sitting in the garage.

outback_97 Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Two things: 1) We're assuming those are 15" Subaru rims, right? 2) Your Forester came with 15" rims stock, so yes Subaru 15's should fit. What do you have on there now that's 16"? Unless a previous owner upgraded the rotor size and the wheels too... ??? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
