Ricearu Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 So, my wife wants A/T's on her foz. what is the biggest tire size you have put on a forester? I can do a 1.5 or 2" strut spacer lift if need be, but if I get rims, then she gets tires... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricearu Posted May 5, 2011 Author Share Posted May 5, 2011 nobody has put bigger tires on a foz with stock struts. it's got 195/60-16's now. Think it will fit 215/75-16's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94Loyale Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 205's fit for sure. 215's rub on Outbacks, but I'm pretty sure they were fine on foresters. You have to watch your clearance with the strut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdjdc Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I have a set of 225 60 16 tires on mine right now and they are just fine. Great ride and I love the look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I put 225/55R-17 tires on my wife's '99 Forester. Looks great and we haven't had any issues with rubbing. Rims came from a 2006 Legacy. Two more pics in my "Stuff" album. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/album.php?albumid=17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Adding comments about "how high can you go" for our Impreza. Finally got the tires/rims mounted on the Impreza. The 205/55-16 tires on the 6x17 RS rims are about as large as you can go. I have just about 1/4" clearance on the rear struts (AGX). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
