Call it a HellFlush IV preview: Take a look at Ian’s 2005 WRX Wagon after the jump!

Aggressive fitment and Subaru’s don’t usually mix. Believe me when I say it’s not easy to make a set of low offset, wide rims fit on a WRX. And not to mention, the WRX comes with an unusual bolt pattern: 5×100. Which means it’s even harder to find wheels with aggressive stats in 5×100.

Which makes it all the more special when we see a suby-enthusiast willing to go through all the headaches to get a nice flush set-up going! Although the fact Ian went with this set-up may be in his blood (his brother also runs around in a flushed-out STI!)

Here’s the sticky: Rota Torques (yeah yeah, I know, ROTAS?? But you find me a big name wheel company that will make a wheel with these specs in a 5×100 bolt pattern!), 18×9.5, +35 offset, 225 wide tires stretched on. It may not sound so aggressive to some of you guys (I’m looking at you 240 owners!), but that is really aggressive for a Subaru, trust me! Not to mention all the supporting mods that go with it (including a set of Tein coilovers!). And don’t forget, this is a WRX, so there’s some go to go with the show (a 2.0L turbocharged flat-four powering all four wheels will do that!).
Say what you will about the whole HellFlush thing, but you can’t admit it doesn’t look good! And as I said earlier, Ian is already confirmed for the upcoming HellaFlush IV in a month so look for this Hella-WRX Wagon!! And thanks to Ian for the shoot!
