Quite possibly. It scraped on Mikey's driveway pretty hard.

Well, I was pulled over by CHP for having too loud of exhaust. Took the Subie to a local exhaust shop and ran 89 decibels on their test which is legal..

I had a hugest smirk on my face when I brought the document stating I'm legal to the local CHP office to have the ticket taken care of .. I'm sure now I have a big target painted on my Subie with every chippie in town...

I recognize that wagon, Mr. Weiss

What kind of tires do you need? I'd recommend RS3, starspecs, or dws if you need all seasons.
