You'll have to roll the back fenders. I had the same size wheels and tires on my wrx at one point. The backs would rub under hard driving.

I found 18" Gramlights for $99 a piece on tirerack.com...
Here's a picture of the rims:
Here is a link to what it'd look like on a stock 2002 WRB WRX:

Here is a link to the rims:

They have an estimated quantity of less than 3 however it allows you to put 4 in your cart so I don't know how many they really have...

love the drag wheels and think the gold or white will look fantastic on the WRB.
also absolutely amazing price on the gramlights but im sure there isnt 4 even tho it lets you put 4 in the cart and there only 7.5" wide
