Just remember to save some money for when the engine takes a poo.

That's a lot of torque for stock fueling. Impressive.

Just went to IAG to get a rattle looked at. Ended up switching back to Subaru Extra S 75w-90 Transmission fluid.

Yup, they are the stock tire. I bought the whole set off a guy on Nasioc for $600 with wheels + tires. They are 2014 model year with 8/32 tread. Fit is perfect, and my speedo is only about 2.5% off from stock. 10/10 would recommend.
