Running into radiatortrouble is there an area to seperate by cutting? The clutch fan wont allow for any lift.

Awesome, the Chevy six lugs looks great too, offset is a little wrong but still look great. Yeah the center hole is just a fraction too small, my buddy Ben with his '86 GL got a set of Dodge 50 6-lug rims and that was an issue with his as well, nothing a grinding stone can't fix.

Even with a 3" lift, you might need to trim the front and rear most part of the from fenders to allow clearance when you turn the wheels. You can do a very clean job with an air cut-off tool.

Good luck and can't wait to see it!

thanks for the info. I actually got a set of chevy six lug and got them drillrd already. I had to grind a little on the center hole but they seat nice. I cant bring myself to mutilate a thing of such beauty so ill wait for spring to lift her! Im biulding my own 3" I already got the strut caps built. Ive only had it for 3 months though so no rush, i like it stock too

You can also get SJR wheel adaptors to run VW 5x205 wheels on the 4x140 hubs. I got a set for free from a buddy. You would be welcome to them if you would pay shipping.

Well you will have to change the wheel from the stock 13" to a 14" or 15" as there is just nothing for tires in the 13" size anymore. You can get a set of peugeot wheels on here or redrill some Chevy or Nissan 6-lug wheels. The Peugeot wheels are 4x140 Just like the Subarus, Chevy/Nissan 6-lugs have two lug holes that will line up, but you will have to drill out the other two holes.

As for largest tire size you can run with out of Lift kit, you can run 26" tires, anything bigger and you will have to trim or roll the lips on your fenders to provide enough clearance. The stock tire size for the 13"s is about 23".

You can, do a lift kit. SJR makes them, 2" kit is about $300. "The beast I drive" Bill olmin makes lift kits too and is a lot cheeper. I have an SJR kit, and really for what you get, its not worth the cost. Bill's kits are of the same standard and cheeper. "One eye" Jeff, might be able to get you a lift kit as well. Just some options for you.

Hope this helps!
