I recently got a 2018 WRX and Im already shopping around for a winter setup. Anyway, I found a used set 17x7.5 40mm offset with 235/45/17 tires. Will this setup fit well on a stock car. Please let me know. Thanks a lot.

It's not ideal, but it's not terrible either.

If you can, find something closer to OEM specs. If not, it will work in a pinch.

That's the size I run...older STI wheels. Looks pretty good too. Not sure of the offset though.

Need to make sure the bolt pattern and distances match up.

Can get some info here:

I sort of lucked into these used tires/rims, but knowing what I know now I would really want to go with Tire Rack or a reputable dealer, as picking the wrong rims could be an expensive mistake.

Not sure of the offset though.

+53

Also, if you are running older STI wheels and have not converted to 5x100 hubs (why on earth would you?), your wheels are 17x8.
