Here's mine with USDM wagon pinks. Still some gap in the front. Dont really have one to show off the back. I was running 225's on 17's with two fatties in the back plus a ton of snowboard gear and never rubbed.

Another tip if you want to run sedan springs is to get the RCE lowering camber plates. They drop the front about 3/8 inch which evens out the drop.

I would strongly recommend the STi wagon springs. Very comfortable, and they were great at auto-x.

You would have to get 04+ rear strut tops and do the "washer mod" to get them to fit properly. Do a search on "washer mod" Turn in concepts has a fix that solves the problem.

Hope that helps.

the jdm/usdm springs don't look like they have much drop to them...the crucial drop looks a lot nicer but isn't the drop on those a little to much? looks like you'd scrape the curb or something

I've got JDM Sti pinks and RCE camber plates on the way. So if you wait a couple weeks I can show you that drop.

Sounds like you'd be happy with the crucials. Good spring rate = performance and good drop = aesthetics.

Here is a link to their springs. On the page there is a link to more pictures, and there is a couple wagons on there.

Like I said earlier you would have to get 04 strut tops and do the "washer mod." Here's a link for T.I.C. solution:
