laopadak Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 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?

Ghionw Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 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? I am on BC Racing coilovers. Not sure how low of a drop I got, I know I barely have any wheel gap, especially in the rear. http://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5097900&postcount=1101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronconia Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I've been drooling over wheels lately, what do you guys think of these two options: Enkei Raijin - http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&initialPartNumber=4678808045HS&wheelMake=Enkei+Tuning&wheelModel=Raijin&wheelFinish=Hyper+Silver&showRear=no&autoMake=Subaru&autoModel=Legacy+Sedan&autoYear=2011&autoModClar=2.5GT+Limited&filterFinish=All&filterSize=All&filterBrand=Enkei+Tuning&filterSpecial=false&filterNew=All&filterWeight=All&sort=Brand BBS SR's http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=runWheelSearch&initialPartNumber=SR024VGPK&wheelMake=BBS&wheelModel=SR&wheelFinish=Machined+w%2FMatte+Graphite+Acct&showRear=no&autoMake=Subaru&autoModel=Legacy+Sedan&autoYear=2011&autoModClar=2.5GT+Limited&filterFinish=All&filterSize=All&filterBrand=BBS&filterSpecial=false&filterNew=All&filterWeight=All&sort=Brand The BBS are about 4 pounds more per wheel, but as of right now I'm going more aesthetics over performance. Thoughts? I'll be keeping my current tires, Cooper RS3-A's 225/45/18. I dunno, for some reason I thought BBS wheels were typically a LOT more expensive, so I'm not sure that these are of the same quality. EDIT: According to willtheyfit, the Enkei's have a bit more poke, which I like (both wheels will fit without any craziness for now), but I can't help feeling that the BBS's look like they came off of a VW.

I like the look of the Raijin's better, you nailed it with the BBS looking a little VW OEM-ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laopadak Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.clipse Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I dunno, for some reason I thought BBS wheels were typically a LOT more expensive, so I'm not sure that these are of the same quality. This seems to be the exception. BBS LMs, RG-Rs, RS', etc. are roughly $1k per wheel. Even cast wheels like the CHs are still $500+ per wheel.

KCLeo12 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So I have looked everywhere for a wheel fitment thread but can't find one so I will ask here. Will a 19x8.5+15 fit? I will be on coilovers and rolling the fenders just don't want to have to pull them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So if you don't want to pull you're going to need like 225/35 tire. They'll poke some thats for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCLeo12 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I went to willtheyfit.com and compared them to people set ups on here and it looks like it will sit about 5-10mm further out then some of the more aggressive set ups like 19x9.5+38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be on coilovers and rolling the fenders just don't want to have to pull them. I wouldn't recommend it unless you are looking for the 8 degrees of camber stance look. They aren't gonna fit in your fenders very well.

s2baru Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 And if you really were going for that "stance" look I'd suggest an even wider wheel probably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faded-a-fool Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Call me ignorant, but I don't understand how wheels would hold air in a setup like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrik94087 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Call me ignorant, but I don't understand how wheels would hold air in a setup like that. They seem to hold air just fine, but they have an added benefit. There is a very recognizable sound when you have reached the curb.

Unsp0kn Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I hate stretch stance so much. I just can't. There's good fitment and there's wrong fitment, like that god-awful SRT-4. I hope people that do that eat curb all the time just because they are so dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be on coilovers and rolling the fenders just don't want to have to pull them. Don't listen to these heathens lol. They'll fit just fine with OUT a pull. and no you won't need 8* of camber to run them. I ran 19x8.5 +35 and it was pretty sunk with PLENTY of room, hell i'm at 19x9.5 +40 and still have a good amount of room to go wider or run a lower offset or even run spacers. with that said, 20mm difference from 19x8.5 +35 is only 3/4 of an inch from my old setup so you'll be fine. but word to s2, I suggest going with a 225/35 tire (I ran 215/35s on my 19x8.5 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCLeo12 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) The reason I was asking about the +15 is because the wheels I like only come in 19x8.5 in +35 or +15. I have looked at the +35 set ups in this thread and wanted something a little more aggressive Just to be clear I am not into the whole stance thing just wanted a aggressive fit. I don't plan on buying several sets of wheels so I wanna get the look I want the first time I have been lurking around this site for 2 weeks since I decided I was getting a 5th Gen. I have went through almost every page of this forum looking at cars for ideas. Edited March 26, 2015 by KCLeo12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Go for it man. I'm the biggest advocate for not doing the norm and to be honest the next setup I was looking at is 19x10.5 +18 to +22 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
