I think most are likely in a similar boat as I: Still collecting parts for the stage 2 tune or still considering what other parts to add before stage 2 tune. If you're going to get tuned, might as well collect all parts and possibly near future parts in advance so you don't have to tune twice in a short period of time. It's winter and the need for speed won't likely hit until spring. It's also tax season so they're either anticipating having to pay or waiting for their refund to buy more parts. For me, I have most of my parts already but want to improve my suspension, switch from winter tires and wait until it's a little warmer before I get tuned. Looking to install / tune probably in April.

You had the same issue as well? Anyone else? Seems very discouraging for us that have yet installed. I for one couldn't deal with multiple removal / reinstallations. Seems some works, others don't. How do we as a group move forward with Nameless on this? Not crying wolf here but if it's an issue that needs to be addressed, it needs to be addressed with the supplier.

Great to hear you sold yours relatively quickly. Sure it was a good deal with all the goodies you had installed.

Another one in Colorado, my favorite color too: http://rockies.craigslist.org/ctd/5284227044.html

Another one in the 303 but salvage title http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/5275254317.html

Thanks- I'm in Thornton and would mostly be interested in the headlights / HID's and any aftermarket shocks you may have installed. Already have Accessport. Racer X TMIC, piping, BOV and Nameless DP ready to install / ready for tuning. Send me a PM if anything is removed or left over from sale. it would save on shipping and make the sale easier.

Good to see another 5th gen owner in the 303, sad to see that it's on the market. GLWS but if you find that you want / need to remove some of the aftermarket goodies, hit me up. I'm local, have stock parts (if needed) and would be interested in a few bits.

Not sure if a member but this just popped up in Denver; http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/5275662765.html

Official 5th Generation Suspension Thread

2012 LGT, swift springs on OEM struts, 19mm outback OEM RSB. 19X8.5, +45 Konig Oversteer on 245/40/19 Falken Pro A/S Just installed yesterday so hasn't settled. So far no rubbing and about .75 finger gap in front, 1 finger gap in rear. -

Thanks for recommendation on these wheels Unsp0kn. Been riding on the wheels for about a week, just installed Swift springs and 19mm RSB yesterday. A few notes: 19X8.5, +45 Konig Oversteer-opal color. 23lbs each. The opal color is pretty much a dark gray which I really like. Was going back and forth between these and black and glad I chose opal. Decent quality and finish, made in China. Riding on 245/40/19 Falken Pro A/S, not a bad tire for the price, made in Thailand. At first I thought 40 series tires wouldn't be enough side wall for our Colorado roads which are crap but this set-up is quite meaty and I'm happy with it. 19's is the way to go on our 5th Gen's IMO. -

Thanks for the info. I think I'll be okay, nothing overly aggressive. Tires are Falken Pro G4 A/S. At $140 each, not too bad, next grade up starts at about $185 a tire. Since I have winter tires /wheels, might try these Falkens first. I'm not an aggressive driver, just looking for decent quality, decent grip and quiet as a daily. -

Pulled the trigger today on Konig Oversteer, 19X8.5, +45, 5X100. Color is Opal. Distributor indicates weight is 21.2lbs but I'll be weighing upon receipt. Best of all, price was just $638 shipped. If anyone is interested in Konig wheels right now, treaddepot.com has free shipping and a discount on the wheels. These will be wrapped in 245/40/19, lowered on Swift Sport springs. Hoping I don't rub.... Pictures up in another week or so Update: received wheels on 7-6-15 and weighed them...23lbs, not the advertised 21.2lbs. After checking the vendors website, I knew something wasn't right when the same size wheel in a different bolt pattern was noted at 23.Xlbs. Either way, I can live with the weight for the price I paid. China made stamped all over the wheels. Color is really nice, more of a dark grey. Finish is good, not perfect. Time will tell how the fit / finish / quality will hold up. All in all, not bad for $638 shipped. -

Guys- In the market for some wheels and one of my considerations is the Varrstoen MK1, 18X9.5 +35. Will be dropped on Swift springs (already have, not yet installed). Car is silver and I like the classic 5-star design which will be really easy to clean.. Checked poke and inset on willtheyfit but that doesn't tell me whether I'll be rubbing or not. Opinions: Do you think they'll rub on 255/40/18 tires? If so, will 245/40/18 be a much better option to avoid rubbing / having to roll? I would prefer the 255 for a more square set-up. Don't want to go 35 for sidewall as our streets in Colorado are really bad. Thanks for any insight. -
White one in Wyoming...http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/5082952234.html

Keep in mind, Colorado is Subaru country so every Subie is overpriced compared to warm weather states. Nice color and options, relatively low mileage too; http://denver.craigslist.org/ctd/5022165148.html

Official 5th Generation Suspension Thread
laopadak replied to DeltaSniper's topic in Fifth Generation Legacy (2010 - 2014 )
^^^ Brandon and I had this conversation yesterday. I opted for Swift springs due to lower spring rates=more comfortable / softer ride. Decided to not bother installing the swifts on stock struts and will be getting Bilsteins soon.....Based on his opinion the Swifts are similar in rate which should provide a smooth ride. I thought the Bilsteins were $799 at one point, checking their site now, it's $999... -

Found these: http://www.nlmotoring.com/MiRo-112-Wheel-18x8-5-Flat-Black-5x100-p/w112.815112.htm Buy three get one? Expires tomorrow. Not bad looking, decent weight. Good pricing and ideal fitment for our GT's IMO. Both flat black and silver available. -

Plans are for the RCE blacks and Bilsteins, not yet purchased or installed. But yes, about .8" drop and would really like to keep the 45 side wall, Denver roads are shitty! What are you dropped on Ghionw? Photos, por favor? -

Really liking the new Wedssport SA72R Ravspec is offering as a preorder. Specs are 18X9.5, +45 offset. Want to run 245/45/18 rubber. Will be dropped on RCE blacks / Bilsteins: Based on willtheyfit.com, the poke will be similar to SubieMT car's at bottom of post. Based on inset, my wheels will be close to strut assembly like Brent C's photos below. Don't want to roll fenders: Do you think it'll rub with this set-up?
