Same 5x114.3 PCD and same 56.1 mm centre bore: wheels from Subaru Forester bolt on and centre on Honda Stream without rings. You still need to check the offset and tyres, detailed below.

Wheel by wheel: offset and tyres

Each original wheel from Subaru Forester is compared with the one from Honda Stream of the same diameter: how much closer the wheel gets to the shock absorber or how far it sticks out of the wheel arch, and whether the tyre keeps the same overall diameter.

    Compared with the original ≈6Jx15 ET50 on Honda Stream: shock absorber side +4.4 mm, wheel arch side +8.4 mm, tyre diameter +5.3 % : fit it with the original tyre size of Honda Stream (195/65R15), not that of Subaru Forester. Comparison for guidance only (estimated width). Check in detail

  • ≈7Jx16 ET48 · 215/65R16

    Honda Stream has no 16-inch original wheel in our data: check the approved fitments and caliper clearance.

  • ≈7Jx17 ET48 · 225/60R17

    Honda Stream has no 17-inch original wheel in our data: check the approved fitments and caliper clearance.

Before fitting the wheels

An identical hub is not enough: offset, width and diameter change the position of the wheel, and larger calipers can touch a smaller wheel. Original wheels often use bolts or nuts with a specific seat: keep the fixings intended for the wheel, with the thread of Honda Stream (Ecrous - 12x1.50), tightened to the torque shown on its vehicle page. Finally, check that the size is among the approved fitments for your vehicle. This comparison is for guidance only: have the fitting approved by a professional.
