May 28, 200520 yr iam thinking about getting a 93' Legacy wagon ""L' Series/AWD...it allready has 14"s will 15" fit without rubbing or will i need a lift??? spark
May 28, 200520 yr 15's will fit (every Subaru rim will fit except SVX and 2005 STi) and so will 16's (i.e. WRX takeoffs).
May 28, 200520 yr Hey look spark a really old pic of my legacy b4 the cage. Thats with the 16"s you saw on my impreza... This is Matt Austin's friend.
May 28, 200520 yr Author Howdy Matt....should have know right.................looks good...cross'n my figures on 93 legacy tomorrow....prob see you guys tomorrow....spark
May 29, 200520 yr Like Craig, 94 GT with 2.5 RS 16 inchers 225/50's you got 225/50s to fit....nice, I'm only running 205/55
May 29, 200520 yr Good luck, Sparkster. I have an older set of 15" wheels on my '91 Legacy; not a problem.
May 30, 200520 yr Craig, please accept my apologies. When you commented about my tires I had to go check, I was wrong, they are 205/55 R16's The 225/50 R16s are on my RS - they will be going on my 93 Legacy Turbo wagon. Will report. again I am sorry for the misinformation
May 31, 200520 yr Author ok the 93 L i looked at had all the records ect...had 148K+ but when i crawled under the engine........yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee both covers leaking and one head leaking....so i took it out for the drive...lol pulled a llittle to the right no biggy... came back and popped the hood....just as i thought.....smells like chicken???? no way.. smoking a lot...the valve covers were leaking good... no deal......the orig price $2700 then they called me afew days later and had dropped it to $2300 ,,so iam expecting a call in a wk or to .... lol....... Still looking for that nice Legacy aWD ,auto for around $2500..... spark.
May 31, 200520 yr Surely stock diameter would require 205/50R16 ?? In my opinion thats what looks best, 17 and 18 get too big and make the brakes look puny. The added weight of most larger rims will also be negative for handling. 16 inchers with an inch of lowering...my next project, right after I win the lottery ;-)
May 31, 200520 yr That may be true with Legacy's that came with 14's stock. However, the Turbo's came with 15's and bigger brakes. Besides, today's aftermarket wheels tend to be lighter weight.
