  1. I put on my Subaru badge of ownership. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4079/4754302540_eb7f776ae1.jpg
  2. If they are 17" or bigger and 5x100 bolt pattern, they should fit. Most of the 16" stock Subaru wheels (like early model WRX and Forester wheels) will likely have trouble fitting due to the brakes on the Legacy GT.
  3. If you are looking for Subaru service in the Reno/Sparks area, check out KSpeed at 1009 Greg St in Sparks. The owner and both the mechanics are friends of mine who know Subarus really well. The lead mechanic has a well dialed in 2.5 RS that he autocrosses the snot out of too. Anyway, they can do fender rolling for a decent price.
  4. More rack pics, from a warmer time (aka, this past summer) http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4100/4798559236_864e66fac9_z.jpg http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4139/4917702788_0924f1d745_z.jpg
  5. I usually have the racks off and put them on when I need. I got in the habit a while ago when I was autocrossing heavily (although I don't do it as seriously anymore). Also, the basket is fairly new. I may start leaving my racks on more, and if that's the case I could see myself leaving the basket on too for a variety of reasons.
  6. Yeah, I like the basket because it gives you a little extra outside storage for gear you don't want inside your car and you can still use all the attachments.
  7. Finally got new Q-Clips for my car and put my Yakima setup on my 05 LGT (only took me 5 years!) http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4120/4753988642_395235e9df_z.jpg
  8. Not quite norcal, but I saw a black wagon, lowered, darker rims, California plates and 4 bikes on the roof today in Reno at the 80 east to 395 south interchange about 6:00pm.
  9. Decent enough wheels. I've known 3 people with them, and they never had any problems.
  10. My car, from the other official wheels thread http://www.neurosybir.net/nkoan/images/weapons.jpg Wheels were borrowed, so I don't remember exact specs, but they were 17's at the very least. Probably 17x7.5 or 17x8
  11. My sub still worked on my 05 (with an 07 stereo) and I didn't have to do anything tricky. Everything just plugged right in. Though, the aux-in would have taken some work, so I haven't done it yet (and probably never will at this point).
  12. Those are Tarmac 1 or 2 (called GR-A now?). It might be hard to find a replacement. The offset will likely be +48, but we'll need to see a pic of the hub mounting surface of the wheel to see.
  13. Take a picture of them and post it here. And if its on your legacy, it'd be a 5x100, not a 5x114. Also, if you look at the hub mounting face of the rim, it should tell you the offset (though it may be cryptic).
  14. Oh yeah, that's right Two sets, actually. I race on Enkei ES-Tarmac wheels as well. But in all seriousness, the Enkei RPF-01, RPM2, NT03 and RP02 are some of my favorite wheels out there (not to mention that most of their wheels are some of my least favorite wheels on the market).
  15. Enkei is not a knockoff brand. They make wheels for a wide range of price points, from super cheap wheels all the way up to fairly nice wheels. And with Enkei, you tend to get what you pay for. If you buy their nicer wheels, they are very solid. The cheap ones suck balls (and have that cheap look with multiple bolt patterns, etc).
