.clipse Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 dang! 1500? that's super cheap... might have to rethink Watercooled... but they got some nice wheels too... + another $150.00 to re-drill each wheel so atleast $2,100.00 + CA state tax... not even worth it at that point. might as well get forgestars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) Well I got the test fit done with a 255 on, and here are my thoughts. While I think it looks amazing I will prob go with a 245 because I want to keep the car almost as low as it sits now. I think raising it up will make the 19's look too small. I am going to for sure need a roll in the rear. Here are a bunch of pics, let me know your thoughts. http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/64EC052C-897C-4E65-9E9A-72702A82361F_zpsmxtrpjlr.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/3A2E70C3-1778-46CC-884F-6E94526FA521_zps75dkaal5.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/209C3EE9-9A7D-4406-A030-06708C31FD39_zpsazv9f5ok.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/77C7FA72-7A9E-4CBF-8648-9BF78F5B6ACC_zpsefqoa6fg.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/1077CD78-FCF6-4C04-8D50-59D187FFF855_zpsxx8lddck.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/16D7E97A-1212-40D9-86B5-96F1D414FFAA_zpsyzxuujrc.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/134B7133-28AF-4C3C-93F2-D8880D8D2DF5_zpsvvmcnmp1.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/FCCCF2B8-0369-4663-B5D7-8E17EA37E7D2_zpsujkfh2p6.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/1121F38C-DF0C-48D3-95D7-AC196DA86A65_zps4kkzx01p.jpg Edited January 4, 2014 by Brent C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Ill get some up close pics for ya cuz i think you just need to roll the lip up on your rear fenders then upfront do a small pull to help with turning radius. I think a 245 would be ok but too stretched imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seankramer7.62 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 That looks fantastic with the 255's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I like the 255's as well. Looks killer! IMHO the car should be raised about 1/2" too.

s2baru Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af38/stu-nami/0104142343_zpsysb988gv.jpghttp://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af38/stu-nami/0104142341_zpsfjvv2yaw.jpg The first pic is of the rear...now i didnt "pull" my rear fenders on the lip i rolled the inner edge upwards so there would be no rubbing. The second is of the front, it is also rolled inwards but i pulled it about 3/8ths of an inch so when hard turning at speed they wouldn't catch and scrape. My awesome measuring tool for you by using the subie key should give you some guidance. http://i991.photobucket.com/albums/af38/stu-nami/9889335825_1770792db2_o_zps53c48591.jpg Also as a reference you can see on blk05gt's car both front&rear are pulled. When looking at the backends notice how his is more flared than how i did mine? Hes om swiftsprings and i have tein basis coils. Hopfully that helps in terms of figuring oit ride height and necessary clearances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainman Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Looks sexy as is. And I'd agree, think 245 would be too much stretch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent C Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 So the majority of you guys think 255 and raise it up a tad?? I do not like the stretch look at all so maybe I should just get the 255 toyos and do what I have to do to make it fit. I keep going back and forth.

yulook Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 What do you guys think about the 18inch wheels that comes with the Sports Package? I bought a 2014 last nite. I think it's better than the stock 17inch however I know it's going to cost me a arm and a leg to replace the tires when they are shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppertone Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 (edited) ^^^. I personally like the look of the Sport wheels on Legacies. As far as an arm and a leg, I will tell you like I tell my Vw brothers, save a little each month, in anticipation of having to do tires.

testa422 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 i dont remember who looked into it but the price of just one wheel from Subaru was crazy high! im glad I bought the sport model however i really love the look of the rims too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) Just mounted them up and I am very happy with how it turned out! no rubbing in front at all, slight rubbing in rear over dips but I think the rear needs to come up about a 1/4 or 1/2 inch anyway. Here is a quick teaser shot, will take more later after I get her cleaned up and the rear bumped up a bit. http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/22FDCDFB-CF89-45C3-B146-1A9C1D48F82D_zpsaotdcmwm.jpg Edited January 25, 2014 by Brent C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
