I have 215/75/r16s on my BRAT. I have yet to test them on my OBS with Forester XT struts. I know that I will need to do a lot of fender trimming to get them to fit right. The only problem I had with the BRAT was that I originally used OBS front struts and the tire would hit the lower spring perch. I put on a set of Outback front struts and they clear just fine.

LosDiosDeVerde86 Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 TOO BIG!!! i just called and they said that they didn't fit in the rear well. they also said that they figured this out after they mounted all of the tires...i hope i don't have to get into a fight about getting charged for that. it's not my fault they didn't think to mount one and test it front and rear... anyway, i'm now going with 205/75r15 Pathfinder Trail A/P which is only 1 size bigger than an outback, so i can't see there being a problem fitting.

For eyeballing my OBS set up. I know that I am going to have to trim the crap out of the rear fender wells, especially the side closer to the doors. Other than that it would be ok.
