About This Subaru Impreza Sport Premium 2013 Build
We love featuring real builds from real owners. This Subaru Impreza Sport Premium 2013 sits on a set of 17×7.5 / 17×7.5-inch Fifteen52 Integrale wheels, and the result speaks for itself.
The owner chose Fifteen52 for a reason. This brand delivers serious quality and a design language that turns heads at every car meet. We see hundreds of Subaru Impreza Sport Premium builds come through WheelFront every month, but this one stands out. The combination of the exterior with the Fifteen52 Integrale creates a look that balances aggression with elegance.
Fitment Breakdown: Fifteen52 Integrale on the Subaru Impreza Sport Premium 2013
I walked up to this Impreza at the show and knew immediately that the Fifteen52 Integrale setup hit the mark. We love the 17x7.5 sizing here because it keeps the rotating mass low while filling those arches perfectly. The 30 offset pushes the face out just enough to kill that sunken stock look.
That 30 offset on a 7.5-inch wide wheel makes for a serious stance on this chassis. You get a nice flush profile without needing to pull your fenders or mess with crazy camber. It transforms the whole character of the car instantly.
Caliper clearance is a non-issue with this specific spoke design. The Integrale clears the stock Subaru brakes with plenty of room to spare. You won't need spacers to clear the calipers, which keeps your steering geometry feeling sharp and responsive.
The hub bore sits right where it needs to be for a direct fit on the Subaru platform. We always suggest running hub-centric rings to ensure you have a vibration-free ride. It keeps everything tracking straight at highway speeds.
Because the owner chose lowering springs, the fender gap is now tight and purposeful. You have to watch for rubbing on the rear fender liners during heavy compression. A quick roll of the rear fenders might be smart if you plan on carrying passengers.
The barrel lip depth on these Integrales adds a bit of architectural texture that stock wheels lack. The spokes curve outward, giving the wheel a sense of depth that draws the eye toward the center cap. It looks aggressive even when the car sits stationary.
Driving this setup requires a bit of awareness on steep driveways. Since the wheels push out further, your scrub radius changes slightly. I found the steering feel stayed direct and communicated well through the wheel.
What We Recommend for Subaru Impreza Sport Premium 2013 Owners
If you want to replicate this look, stick to 17-inch wheels for the best balance of ride quality and handling. An 18-inch wheel often forces you into a thin tire that ruins the ride on these older Imprezas. Stay in the 7.5 to 8-inch width range to avoid clearance headaches.
Offset is everything on a Subaru. Aim for the 30 to 35 range to get that flush appearance we all crave. Anything higher than 40 will leave the wheels tucked too far inside the wheel wells.
Do not even think about a staggered setup on this all-wheel-drive platform. You need a square setup to keep your center differential happy and your tire wear even. Keep the same width and diameter at all four corners to avoid expensive mechanical failures.
Tire choice dictates how aggressive you can get with your stance. A 215/45/17 tire fits beautifully on a 7.5-inch wide wheel without looking like a rubber band. You get a little sidewall protection and a clean, boxy look that fills the fender gap perfectly.
Avoid cheap spacers if you run into any minor clearance issues. If you need a few millimeters of clearance, buy high-quality, hub-centric spacers with integrated studs. Never compromise on your wheel hardware because that is what keeps your car on the road.
Style and Build Analysis
The choice of a stark White finish against this body color is a bold move that pays off. It gives the Impreza a rally-inspired aesthetic that feels authentic to Subaru's heritage. The white paint pops against the darker body lines and makes the wheels the undeniable focal point.
The Integrale design itself is a masterclass in clean, functional geometry. The multi-spoke pattern mirrors classic motorsport designs while remaining modern enough for a daily driver. It looks like it belongs on a special stage, not just a mall parking lot.
Stance is about proportions, and this car nails it. The lowering springs provide just enough drop to close the gap between the tire and the fender lip. It looks like a car that gets driven hard, not a show queen that never sees the pavement.
I have seen dozens of Imprezas with generic aftermarket wheels, but this one stands out. The specific offset and white finish create a cohesive package that looks factory-plus. It proves that you do not need wide-body kits to make a car look fast.
The way the light hits the white spokes while the car is in motion is mesmerizing. The wheels capture every bit of sunlight and highlight the intricate shape of the Integrale spokes. It is an aesthetic upgrade that improves the car from every single angle.
Why We Love This Build
I am obsessed with this build because it feels honest and approachable. The white Fifteen52 Integrale wheels breathe new life into the 2013 bodywork without making it look overdone. Every time the car rolls into the light, the white paint catches the sun and demands your attention. It is the perfect balance of rally heritage and street-smart style.
The stance is tight, the fitment is spot-on, and the total package screams enthusiast ownership. We see a lot of cars, but this one reminds us why we fell in love with modifying Subarus in the first place. It is a clean, reliable, and sharp daily driver that turns heads at every red light. This is how you do a proper street build.

Before You Buy: Fitment Checklist
We talk to Subaru Impreza Sport Premium owners every day. These are the questions we hear most before they pull the trigger on new wheels.
Will 17×7.5 / 17×7.5-inch wheels fit my Subaru Impreza Sport Premium? Yes, but fitment depends on width, offset, and tire size working together. A wrong offset means rubbing. A wrong tire size means poor handling. Always verify all three.
Do I need to modify my fenders? That depends on your offset and suspension. A conservative offset with stock ride height usually fits without modification. Go aggressive and you may need to roll or pull your fenders.
Can I daily-drive this setup? Absolutely. Thousands of Subaru Impreza Sport Premium owners run 17×7.5 / 17×7.5-inch wheels every day. The key is choosing the right tire with enough sidewall to absorb road imperfections.
