Did anyone else think that the ride suffered when adding even a 1" spacer lift? I think maybe if you went to adjustable control arms it would be different but i just looked forward to the softer ride in the winter and w/ the 1" it just wasn't worth the install pain & poor ride quality.

Goob, is that on stock setup? any rubbing?

 

Yes...stock, sagging, worn out suspension.

 

Rubbed on mud flaps and rear pinch welds. If you are ok with the squishy oem suspension you could run a 1in spacer. I wanted stiffer springs.

 

Side note: low traction in the wet with these tires and stage 1. Things will really get interesting when the VF52 goes in :spin:

Any rubbing? I wanted to go with the 225/65 KO2s but was concerned about rubbing in the front. I settled on 225/60s for the time being.

 

Major bumper bite with these while trying to turn! I will have to cut a decent amount of the front bumper for clearance. Will post pics when I do.

Hey so wanted to throw this out here... Primitive Racing now makes the hidden winch mount for the legacy/outback crew. It's a solid and stellar piece that replaces the front bumper beam. I mounted a Warn Axon 55s to it and it works wonders when stuck. Also, Raceline just released a set of small vehicle offroad wheels for us Subaru peeps. Apologize for the quick advertising plug, but wanted to share with y'all that companies are still willing to make us, the red headed step child IMHO, parts.bddaafdda078f6cb2a03257140dd673d.jpg

I like it.. What size tires are you running and are you lifted? You look pretty close to stock height, but with extra tire under there.
