They would, but not very well.

You are looking for an offset (also sometimes called ET) of around 49, as that's what Vauxhall fitted to these cars.

ET 45 will be fine, but personally I wouldn't go much lower. I know some people are going to disagree with me now, but I'd only use between 45 and 49.

you can get away with et42 on 16's with some arche jiggery pokery. but 45-49 you will not need to.

Simon, I wouldn't say you can go any higher at all, as all Vauxhall wheels sit quite close to the shocks both front and back- personally would stick to 45-49.

Also, think you would struggle to find anything like ET55 - The only aftermarket wheels I know like that are ET52, designed specifically for Impreza's.
