crazylong127 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 i have an 87 subaru dl wagon 4wd. i replaced the stock wheels and tires with some from an isuzu. 15 inch wheels with 275 75 15 tires. i cut the fenders so now it only rubs when i bottom out the suspension. my problem is that my washer reservoir is in my passenger fender. when i make a decent sized left turn the tire rubs on the reservoir. is there anyway to move it? or should i try to just raise the car up some more?

GeneralDisorder Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Get one from an EA81 or from a 90 to 94 Legacy - they are mounted in the engine bay. The EA81 unit has a bracket that should be pretty simple to find a place to mount. The Legacy one is contoured but with some creativity it would work.

baccaruda Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I run that size tire on a wagon with a 4" lift and shocks an inch longer. When turning, my tires rub on the mudflaps a little ( I need to trim them) and on the framerails in back. If you're serious enough to be running tires that size you may as well throw a lift on the car so you can really use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one eye Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I would think a 2" lift would be perfect you wouldn't have as many rubbing issues. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff yeah probably. the only thing that rubs is the washer reservior. but i think a 2 inch lift would look good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
