Hey all, new here, not an expert but always hoping to learn more. I'm getting snow tires for my '91 Loyale this year, and wanted to get a second set of rims for 'em. I found two stock '91 steel rims at the local Pick-n-Pull. I also found two 4x140 rims on an older 80s GL, but they're narrower than the '91s. So now I have four 13" 4x140 Subaru rims, but two are stock 5" wide (inner diameter) and the older pair are 4.5" wide. The 175/70 tires I'm planning on getting will fit both 4.5" and 5" rim widths, so I could do this and have four matching tires... just on two different rim widths. Bad idea? Liable to stress or damage anything, especially with regard to the 4WD? Thanks

Co-worker has a 2004 Forester with 205/60-16 bad tires for snow. I have 1990 5 bolt rims with 195/75-14 very new super aggressive snow tires. The outer tire diameter is within reason, the width a little less than I'd like. The real question is will the calipers/rotors on his car will clear the smaller rim inner diameter. Yes we can try it and see if it fits, but I can see if anyone posts and save a hassle too -
Be in my first awd. Little confused after I read the manual and all the warnings about x mode when and how not to use it. Assume icy,muddy,.snowy, etc. dynamic control OFF button? Any expert experience would be appreciated. Drive in NW half the year and desert SW half the year. Sand? Snow tires? Thanks Roy
