Has anyone tried this kind of rims:
7j*17
ET45
with 225/60 R17 tires.
Does it work well?
Thanks a lot!

I had the XIce3 before and they performed poorly, but didn't wanna miss the sale or wait for the WS90...

Don't forget, you aren't limited to just 56.1mm center bore rims. 56.1mm is just the minimum you should go and is ideal to aim for. You can run a larger bore and use hubcentric rings (about $5-20 extra for a set of 4, depending on where you get them). That should open up your options for styles more.
I also noticed Costco's rim site (c-wheels or something) now has the proper bolt pattern and specs when you input a 2019 Forester. For anyone wondering.

Provides one part number, but not the other...DJ Trance AZ wrote: ↑ I just bought a set of black steel hub centric 17" rims from Costco Tire...$299+tax with shipping...Fits our Forrester...
I previously had gotten the x40911 but they are not hub centric.

The offset is 40. They work well with 19 forester, right? If so, mine with offset 45 would also work well. But I need to use hub centric rings.DJ Trance AZ wrote: ↑ It's X47514 from Costco Wheel site...just put mine on today and it's definitely hub centric.

Thanks!DJ Trance AZ wrote: ↑ I am not a tire expert, but drove my car on the highway this morning and there wasn't any vibration from the tires. I am happy with the rims since they are only for winter anyway...

When we last bought wheels from Coscto... plastic rings included with purchase. It should say rings included on website I believe. I doubt you can buy at warehouse.shop ahoy wrote: ↑ Re: 2019 Forester - questions on TPMS and hub centric rings:
Did anyone add TPMS sensors to their set of winter wheels? Where did you buy them? How much did it cost?
After putting on the winter tires, did the TPMS system have to be re-calibrated at the Subaru dealership? How much did it cost? Does it have to be re-calibrated again in spring?
When buying wheels from the Costco affiliate site, if the center bore size is larger than 56.1, can you also buy hub centric rings from them? If not, when you bring them to the Costco store to be installed, do they have them there?
