  1. I am looking for a some places where I can buy tires for my 08 WRX. I have checked out a few recommended websites, Tire Rack, Tire Easy and Tread Depot. I know about Discount Tire, Pep Boys and Les Schwab but the tires here are more then the other tire websites. I wanted to check out some local tire shops in LA that can get me a better deal then these websites can. I have a few tires in mind that I want to get. The size I am looking for is 225/45/17. Some of the tires that I have in mind is Kumho Ecsta ASX, Kuhmo Ecsta AST, Toyo Proxes 4.
  2. I read that these size tires 215/45R17 will also work too. I read that this size is a little wider. What is better to go with 215/45R17 or 205/50ZR17?
  3. Here is another one that I am considering of getting. 2008 Subaru WRX Hatchback Blue Manual Miles: 35k 3rd Owner No accidents/clean title Modified the exhaust and intake but the person put it back to stock Price: $18,000
  4. My tire size is 205/50-17. I am looking for some tires that have good grip on dry and wet roads. I also plan to go to the mountains so I want a tire that can grip good in the snow.
  5. Hello, I am looking to get a new pair of all season tires for 2008 WRX Sedan. I have been doing some research and I am coming across a lot of all season tires but I am having a difficult time choosing. I need some recommendations on the some good All Season tires for less then a $100 a pop.
  6. Thanks, I've doing some research on tires. I am trying to find some cheap tires less then $100 a piece any recommendations?
  7. I took the 08 WRX inspected at a mechanic shop and the only things they found out is Brake Inspection: Front 20% and Rear 30% and need to replace all 4 tires. Needs a new air filter. How much do you think this will cost to replace?
  8. I contacted the below mechanic shops and either they are not open any longer or not open on saturday. Subaru Independent Cub Machine Brainstorm performance SPD TUNING Performance Dyno Tuning (PDT) Solo Performance Are there any other mechanic shops around Hollywood, Burbank, Culver City or Los Angeles area that is open on Saturday?
  9. I have been checking out other states such as Washington, Oregon and Nevada but I am still unable to find one within my price range. I found one that is for $18,000 below are the conditions of the car. 2009 Subaru Impreza WRX -5 speed manual -5 door hatchback -Satin White Pearl - almost 62,000 miles (mostly highway) -clean title -$18,000 obo -run strong with no mechanical problems The FLAWS The car was in an accident in 2009. Front end damage. Everything was repaired by a Subaru certified autobody shop. The total expense was covered by the insurance so everything was the right. There are couple of scratches here and there (shown in pictures). There is a huge dent on the rear passenger side right above the tail light So far this is the best price that I have found an 09 WRX.
  10. I have another private seller with the below. 2008 Subaru WRX Hatchback White Manual Miles: 51k 2nd Owner Everything serviced with receipts No accidents/clean title Modified the exhaust and intake but the person put it back to stock Price: $16,995 Is this a better deal?
  11. Rooster2 - Thanks, I checked out the NADA and the price of the car he is selling at is about the average according to NADA.
  12. According to a forum a read on NASIOC about 09 these years have engine failure issues. http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1648372&page=4 I am leaning more towards an 08.
  13. Hello, I am checking out a 2008 Subaru WRX either this Saturday or next weekend. I wanted to take the WRX into a local Subaru mechanic for them to do a checkup on the car before I decided to purchase it or not from a private seller. I don't know any good Subaru mechanic shops located in LA. Can anyone recommend any Subaru or general mechanic shop in Los Angeles, CA? Thank you,
  14. Hello, I wanted to know if this is a good deal for 2008 Subaru WRX. Here are the specs of the car and the price. 2008 Subaru WRX Miles: 40k 2nd Owner Manual Everything serviced with receipts No accidents/clean title Location: Los Angeles, CA Price: $17,500 I checked KBB with these specs for something fair is priced at $16,934.
  15. Hello, I am currently looking into purchasing either a 2008 or 2009 Subaru WRX. I have been doing some research and looking at reviews. What are some of the major differences between the 08 and 09? Also I read that the 08 has more problems then the 2009? Is this true and if it is what are the common problems seen in 08 and not the 09? I am debating between purchasing a used 08 or 09 with high miles but a lower cost or pay a little more and get one with low miles? Thank you.
