That sounds fun! Let’s start by reviewing the most important features in off-roading wheels. You need something strong and lightweight. The wheels should also repel debris to provide peak performance on cluttered roads. Grip and puncture-resistance are probably important, oo.
When modifying a vehicle for off-road use, you’ll need to make some decisions. Do you want a low offset? Is appearance as important to you as performance? What about cabin noise created by a heavier tread? Do you plan to drive in
snowy conditions
?
For most people, 17-inch wheels will be the best option. This size wheel will fit nicely over your brakes while still allowing plenty of sidewall.
Here are some tire brands beloved by Subaru owners for off-roading:
  • Method Racing MR502
  • KMC Bully
  • Black Rhino
  • Sparco Terra
  • Motegi
  • LP Adventure
You will probably need aftermarket lug nuts. Check the hub bore size on your wheels before you go shopping. Offroaders may also wish to buy front and rear bumper underguards to protect the undercarriage.
