B00STER Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 whhaaaaaa!!! :eek:love the porsche wheels! the fitment works perfectly. do u have spacers?? They are replicas that were made mostly for VWs... Probably Mille Miglia wheels... 18x8 - et35 - 5x100 - 73.1 hub size Just had to get hub-rings. Thanks for the compliment!! Probably getting 10mm spacers for the rear to "flush" it out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dujo Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 ^ Love those wheels on the GRP. Especially on the lowered outback. I loves me some lowered outbacks. Maybe I need to get one to match my LGT wagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I need to get one to match my LGT wagon. Thanks! I'm real happy with with how my wagon turned out....although it would have been nice to get a legacy so as to have the suspension be perfect and not a 'modification'. Although it handles great, the LGT would have had the proper steering angles and proper steering ratio that the lowered OBXT doesn't have. That being said, with that 4.44 final gear ratio, I merely look at the throttle the wrong way in 5th and that thing just bolts! Makes for quite the exciting romp around town too! -r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueWhiteBoy Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Hi guys, hoping that someone here might be able to help me out. Looking at getting a rack for what'll likely be 2-3 mountain trips a year. I noticed SportRack by Thule seems to have a fairly cheap base rack setup, but I can't seem to find many reviews on them. Anyone have any experience with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zisforzachary Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 is that the ARB53? Do you think a smaller size would fit so appearance would be more flush? Thule Aeroblade installed yesterday. Loving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zisforzachary Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 do you have the shadow 14 on there? Loving my INNO box on my 2005 LGT wagon. Currently my pix of the LGT wagon are being featured in the JDM INNO catalog. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred_Buchi Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v62/mo439470/specbbike.jpg How confident are people with using the upright racks? I really hate taking the front wheel off but I feel like it's more secure. If I take a corner hard could the upright bike fly off? It's a lot more crap up top all the time, I'm concerned with additional wind noise and mpg decrease. I plan to run a 15 or 20 mm thru axle on my next bike so I don't want to deal with taking the wheel off when I get it. Thoughts? Sick bike btw.

uptown4784 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Where can I get a cheap decent rack? thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeblow Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I get all my stuff through http://www.orsracksdirect.com. They have the 3 major brands (Thule, Yakima, Inno) and usually run 10% off everything. They have promo codes from time to time for an extra 10%. I just recently won a $250 gift code from them for submitting a review, so I may be a bit biased. It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even tore the christmas lights out of a tree at my bank without a problem My bike has non-quick release Magura hydraulic rim brakes, so pulling the wheel is a pain. Plus, I don't have to find a place to put the wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexprez86 Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, hoping that someone here might be able to help me out. Looking at getting a rack for what'll likely be 2-3 mountain trips a year. I noticed SportRack by Thule seems to have a fairly cheap base rack setup, but I can't seem to find many reviews on them. Anyone have any experience with them? I couldn't help restraining from responding here. As I was just thinking about my friend, I came across this thread. Thankful for the thread creator. Very creative and thoughtful. Thanks for creating another community of enthusiasts in here! SportRack is a great company, but their pricing is not that competitive. quite pricey, whereas you can buy the same brand elsewhere for a much better price and experience. If you are interested, my long time friend I knew since childhood is a distributor of Thule and Yakima Roof Racks. Pm me if you like to get a setup, and what you are looking for. I'll be sure to help you get the best price since we are Legacygt Members. Anyone else as well. Guarantee best experience. On the other hand, this forum is such a blessing environment, and I am so thankful that everyone shares similar values and norms here. Loving the subies!

joeblow Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Not a Legacy anymore, but here's my WRX racked out. Standard railgrabs and crossbars with a LoadWarrior basket and Raptor bike tray. I also have a snowboard rack, but I don't like the way it sits up on top of the basket so far off the roof. http://i.imgur.com/9a7fybb.jpg It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred_Buchi Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Finally got racks on my wagon!!! Woo! OEM crossbars (thanks to black_bulletGT) and Rocky Mounts Pitch fork mount bike racks. Bike rack trays are really nicely made (I returned a rhino rack tray I bought that cost twice as much and these are just as nice or nicer) they are definitely comparable to any of the top rack brands. The lock cores are quite cheap though and I think I could probably tear one apart with any standard screwdriver. The hardware for mounting to the rails feels solid and is designed so that you have to remove the locking skewers before you can get to the hex bolts so I do feel moderately secure despite the cheap lock cores. The plastic locks on the OEM rack can't be that strong anyway so if there's a weak point I'm sure thieves will find it. Got a muddy ride in today and forgot to take a picture with the bike on top. Soon! Going to move them a few inches forward though. My back tire hits the hatch when open. I was careful to make sure the rack didn't hit when it opened up but forgot that the tire would stick out a little further. The rack I bought here didn't have end caps or keys for the locks and Mont Blanc sent me a full set free of charge! Adding a snowboard rack in the center hopefully next week Racks on racks! http://imageshack.us/a/img210/5157/photo1ber.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img191/1601/photo3to.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img4/4006/photo2opk.jpghttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/191/photo3to.jpg/http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/4/photo2opk.jpg/http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/210/photo1ber.jpg/ Edited February 10, 2013 by Alfred_Buchi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeblow Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I had to flip my bike trays around to clear the hatch of my WRX wagon, so don't be afraid to try that too. It's cool; I'm with the band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a worry, it barely touches as it is now and I've got at least 3" that I can move it forward. Should be fine. I might have to flip one to carry 2 bikes though.

Kalien32 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Just bought my yakima roof rack setup. Got a snowboard clamp and two bike mounts with it.! Got to use it for the first time yesterday, picking up my girlfriends snowboard. I love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
