Steelie rollers. So G

[hinrichs]

I think I have a greddy lip that will fit this if your interested...never put it on the forester...also my old coils if you drive up they are yours

[Ryan.]

So the car may be getting low soon

Then I'll just need to save for wheels and little odds and ends and I'll be ready for wicked big meet

so i painted the chrome piece in my headlights it looks so much better and it was such a quick mod to do. i definitely suggest it to others.

so my rear wiper stopped working recently so rather than trouble shoot it, i figured id just delete it. i still have to put the cap over the hole where the wiper motor was. but heres the mock up.

The swap would be a really cool idea! But if money's tight I'd personally just keep up on normal maintenance and save for some nice coils then wheels. Just my 2 cents

In for this

my friend zach whos selling me the motor said hes not gonna sell it to me until he pulls it apart himself and makes sure hes not selling me junk so i wont be getting the motor anytime soon which means time to save for wheels and coils im definitely doing the swap its just a matter of how far into the future its gonna be

random photo update nothing new to say. winter is making me sad wish it would just go away already.
Still looking to find the best set of wheels for this. nothing too crazy expensive cause im in college and have other things i need money for but also not something that you see on every single subaru (for example RPF1s)


oh and this guy is in one of my automotive classes at my local community college, cant tell if hes trolling people or actually is serious about these. they looked as if they were just like the light strips youd find in someones room. sorry for the redirect link and crappy snapchat text over the video

It's out there. Im always torn between blowing $$$$ on expensive wheels when i see them, but being a college student that isn't working much that usually isnt in my best interest, haha, so i usually have to budget down and find something cheap, but cool.

Ive found deals in the local CL ads, try doing basic searches like "5x100" or "5x114.3." The right deal will come across.

ill check cl, i tend to avoid it cause ive had experience in the past where most ads ive come across the people dont know shit about the wheels theyre selling the description will be something like "BUY MY RIMZ theyre round come with tires and they have 5 holes to attach to the car" I really appreciate all the suggestions, i really admire your rs and coincidentally i followed you on ig earlier this morning.

Now to try and find wheels that look good that aren't super over played and within my
Budget. This isn't gonna be easy lol

Yeah I spoke with my buddy and I told him Id rather run a 17 so I will be looking for some nice 17x8 or 17x9 wheels. Im not good with figuring out what offsets and geometry will fit on the car. The whole thing kinda confuses me. Im sure I sound like a noob but we all gotta start somewhere.

What is the offset?
I fit 17x9.5 et31 with a 215/40 with about -3 and a roll.

You may run into issues running an 18 on the gf chassis. At any somewhat low rideheight your tires are gonna rub the tops of the fender wells, even if you have fender/lip clearance. Mine did it with 17's and a 40 seires tire, so i can imagine you'd need like a 35 series tire to get the front close to the ground.

I suggest finding some cooler odd spec oem wheels instead of slumping and buying xxr. I've went from one OEM 90s wheel to the next and haven't spent more then 500$

so nothing really new to report but hopefully this spring i will be putting on isc coilovers on and getting 18x8.5 xxr 521s with tires from a friend for a great deal. Not exactly dying to run xxrs but for my first low set up and for the deal that im getting itll be fine. It may take a bit of camber to fit them on my car so we will see what happens.
