FS: (4) '05 LGT 17" wheels + tires

Bolt pattern 5x100, not sure offset -- FWD-ish, so +50 or so. Wheels are in definitely used condition -- PO curbed them here and there but all the damage is superficial. Good for winter setups. The...

There's usually enough oil left in the engine that, while not good, won't cause any catastrophic failure. Get an analysis done after the next change but I wouldn't be too worried. Oil loss is...

There's very little torque steer on them because GM designed a strut type suspension that does away with one of the nasty side effects: http://wardsauto.com/ar/gm_hiper_strut_100330/

17x7, 5x100 and weigh around 20lbs per -- not sure on offset or hub but I assume it's the same since it doesn't look like the wheel hubs have changed for Subaru in quite some time.

I'm running '05 LGT 17s that clear the brakes fine along with Falken Eurowinters in 225/55R17. Haven't tried putting them on with the RCE springs but they cleared just fine on stock. I expect minimal...

220F or 230F or whatever, as it comes close to overheating, the light blinks red. Once it exceeds the upper limit of safe temperatures, it turns solid red.

If it sold well, it would still be available. Maybe a last hurrah before the 5th gens turn into the 6th gens but don't expect it.

Look at the Mazdaspeed3 -- normally Mazdaspeeds were just special...

viscous are better than nothing for HPDE, and probably autoX. VDC is dandy for the streets but I'd be worried about it cooking the pads (especially the low-dust factory kind) in any sort of...

It feels better. It's not quite a plastic feel, it has some friction/faux wood grain feel to it. It looks, to me, better because it isn't glossy. Of all the samples I received only the bravoburl was...
