Sure thing, solid axle Vs IFS, ARB lockers vs...whatever, yea I suspect you don't really have a good grasp on the offorad capable world.


now as to the forester I quoted, my point was the sticker on it was just stupid, other than that, love it...wouldn't own it myself but love it.

I somtimes wish I could slam the FXT like that, but I drive it every day to work and back, and that would kill my kidneys more than the setup I have now does.

I'm sorry but that looks terrible. That's my opinion.

Miro 398 18x9.5 et 20. 225/40/18.
Stance GR+ coilovers. It pokes a lot right now, but I'll be adjusting the camber once my fenders are rolled and slightly pulled. The coils are so stiff that even at my current ride height with stock camber i only rub when turning hard. Gonna try -3° all around and that should fix any rubbing.

Quality pictures should be up in the next week once I get my car all cleaned up.

Edit: attach pics of your new setup!

Looking good, what wheel and tire setup are you running?
