Andy_Mac Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Surely there is no way that'd work without going with stupid amounts of camber. Even then you'd need atleast 22mm gap from fender to wheel on your current setup and 18mm more on the inside which i'm sure isn't there. Unless you have coilovers? You said stock but they give heaps more room if you want to go real wide. And 255-45 is getting quite alot bigger than the standard setup so speedo will be off by a few miles 2000 Legacy B4 RSK - SOLD 2006 Legacy BP5 GT Spec B wagon - Garage Thread 2011 VW T5 van 2.0L of turbo diesel awesomeness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 do you want to put in work? If not, don't get those wheels If so, 225/40/18 for easy fit, 255/35 for meaty fit or choose in between depending on how much work you want to put in and SEARCH n00B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecBlitzed Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Putting in work what you talking about?? Maybe fender roll and pull. I hate the small stretch look of a small side wall. Iam not lowered. It's come down to either a 255/40 or 265/40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpecBlitzed Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well. It's gonna take some work 8) but Iam gonna make um fit. What is a quality Coilover?? Iam looking at the BC's. Fronts are EZ max out camber with the camber plates. As for the rear hope the white line bushing are enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetiger Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 BC is not a quality coilover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecBlitzed Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Thinking bout going with the Fortune Auto 500 series and custom build them with swift springs. As for the rear camber is the whiteline bushing my only option for camber adjustment. Been researching SPC makes a camber bolt supposedly for the rear on the legacy up to -+ 1.75 degrees.

SpecBlitzed Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Ended up poping a front tire on my WRX. Since these tires are too big on the wherl offset. I'll be swapping them over to my WRX and ordering new ones for theses wheels. Either. 245/40 or a 235/40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortune auto is garbage too. there is no place for camber bolts on the rear of the 4th gen legacy. instead you need either an adjustable camber arm (whiteline KTA124) or an adjustable camber eccentric bushing (whiteline KCA399). Camber bolts are only for McStrut type suspensions where one of the strut to knuckle bolt hole is slotted for a cam bolt, like in the front of the 4th gen.

whitetiger Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 Fortune auto is garbage too. I take this back partially. the 500/510/MSC-1 series is garbage. The Dreadnought Pro 2 way and higher could be good depending on the dyno sheets they give you. If they do a full dyno run for all the adjustments at 3 in/sec and the increments are linear with little crosstalk and the forces are the same across both shocks, on all increments, on the same axle, then they could be good.

SpecBlitzed Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 Found some cheap 235/40's and real happy I can drive my car now without any serious rub issues. Who has problems with the plastic piece in the rear with the tire popping it off. Either going to trim the plastic till it stops popping off or heat it with a heat gun and bend it around. I rolled my rear fenders enough and I wont be needing the whiteline rear camber bushing. I'll be ordering the Fortune Auto Coilovers probably the 510's soon. Excited to see how it will look with less wheel gap and get some camber in the front to tuck the tops of the wheels in. And of course the better handling!! http://i1304.photobucket.com/albums/s526/Blake_Westergaard/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpsstqsccil.jpg http://i1304.photobucket.com/albums/s526/Blake_Westergaard/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps7wdthtyj.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
