Wanna know how I know your new to Subarus?

Why would you call the dealer for anything, they can't do anything right. Crazy offsets being a et35 Thats not a crazy offset now lets bring the offset down to 28 or lower. Why are you being such a hater? Wheel bearings are $65 a bearing and pending on the shop you take it to $85 in labor so $150 a side. Thats really not that bad.

You forgot seals, possibly a lateral link bolt (in any salt state), and more than one hour of shop time. $85 an hour is also very conservative.


If you are paying someone to do it, $250-300 a corner is more realistic.

What the herra frush crew refuse to acknowledge is that wheel bearings are not the only thing affected by their ridiculous wheels and spacers.

Funny what a few mods and "bad offset" wheels can do huh.
Nobody claimed people were smart or had any form of good taste.

Right, who wouldn't want to live in an overpopulated, overtaxed, earthquake and forest fire rich area completely overrun by brodawgs?



Oh right, but the weather is nice...

Whine about something like gears or transmissions. Those are way more expensive and break go waaaaayyyyy more often than wheel bearings around here.

Oh right, but the weather is nice...
People that like to...
Surf in the Morning
Do some dirtbiking in the desert in the afternoon
Then do some snowboarding at night.
Best tuner shops
Best race tracks
Best driving weather (never have to put the top down on the S2K)
Best women
some of the best colleges (UCLA, USC, UCSD, CalPoly...)

But even above that, my all time favorite thing about SoCal that you can't find anywhere else and is probably the reason why everyone thinks is were insane; is the fact that if you want to make something happen; it's possible. I mean you can literally start any business you want out here and make it happen.

Edit: Born and raised in Kentucky, im not just some yuppy from California that likes to brag. I just like it better here. =[ I can't stand going back and it being dark and cloudy in October.
