pease

I have a 99 impreza outback sport awd and after taking it down a logging road and having to turn around about 2 miles in, I went looking for a truck. Weeell trucks are expensive, so I'm looking at raising the impreza again. I just got a job at firestone and get good deals on the tires, so Im eyeing these destination A/ts which come in 205/75r15 and wondering what all I'd need to do to run those tires and get a lift looking like this? I have to drive ~60 miles round trip so highway driving is a must, but could I get away with just putting on four 2005 forester 'quick struts' (spring/strut/tophat).. or is more required? ? heres what Im thinking: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2004-2005-Subaru-Forester-2-5-FCS-Complete-Loaded-Front-Struts-Springs-/201272789277?fits=Year%3A2005%7CModel%3AForester&hash=item2edccb091d:g:6S8AAOSwEeFU3tOu&vxp=mtr and http://www.ebay.com/itm/FCS-Complete-Loaded-Struts-Coil-Spring-Assembly-Set-REAR-Left-Right-STRUTS-/201271292857?fits=Year%3A2005%7CModel%3AForester&hash=item2edcb433b9:g:gtMAAOSwYGFUwpTB&vxp=mtr ...or could I get away with just forester struts/my springs and http://www.subtle-solutions.com/product_info.php?cPath=21_23_32_83&products_id=134 ?? IDK I'm kind of lost

weird, taller struts and spacers up front? Mine sits lower in the back...Sounds like the forester strut swap is needed for any tire with decent off road tread. Is that all you did? Did you do anything else like endlinks or the outback sway bar mount? Have you had this done long and have you noticed any increased wear on parts? edit: also, just to verify - you have 99 impreza struts in the back -- and 04 forester struts and springs up front?

Hello all I have a 1999 impreza outback sport with the 2.2 auto. looks a lot like this with steel rims and rustier: I want to get THESE on it so I can have a tiny bit more room underneath and trust it's off-road traction for camping. What's the least I could lift it to fit these tires and not get any serious rubbing or loss of turning radius? I think it needs struts soon and I was looking at these: KYB Excel-G ...could I use these upgrade/replacement struts and a spacer? Or do I need the next model up KYBs which are adjustable...or do I need the 04 forester? I really don't want to mess with the suspension geometry much if I don't have to.

Hi I'm looking at doing something similar with my 99 Impreza Outback; could you post a picture of your car after the 2" spacer lift? Do you think you could run chains with those tires - maybe with some plastic trimming?
