[Sand Lake run January 17th or 24th???]

I would be worried if it was lowered. But if you can get some more clearance you might be fine, put on some Tein gravel springs or something. I would suggest the same as any other stock height vehicle and that is to stick to the open hard pack stuff, no going back in the trees on the rooted trails or in the loose deep sand, and choose you line carefully. But again its you car so do what you want. It would be fun to see a WRX open up on the hard sand! I would also make sure you at least have a beefy skid plate on and you also need to mount a orange flag on the car. I know the Honda shop in South town Corvallis on 99W has some.

 

I think we're gonna be in Tillamook on the 17th anyways, but I don't think I'll take the WRX out this time. Not sure about the clearance. I may put the stock springs back on and look into an aftermarket skid plate beyond the plastic one that comes stock. And, I have no idea where I'd want to mount an orange flag. I'm intalling a hitch reciever soon, maybe I'll figure something out using that..

I'd love to explore the coastline with someone though. If someone wants a rider one of the next times you guys go out PM me and i'll join you guys!

I've got an 08 WRX with STi springs.. So, it's about an inch lowered, and the exhaust sits kind low! If I put the stock springs on it gives me about 6 inches of clearance. I'd love to go but don't know if my car would make it anywhere.

Would it be worth trying??
