I don't know about the 2.5i, but for the wrx I found this

05+ fronts w/rotors
05-07 rears with KNS brackets w/rotors
08+ rears w/rotors

Rsutton's quote is correct if you are buying used rotors/calipers (the more common & economical option) and if you buy the kit(s) brand new they also have a bracket they provide for the rears so its a perfect fit on 08+ WRX. When I was researching for mine, buying new rear calipers/rotors they only had the 05-07 config so the bracket was needed to make it work. I don't know if you were to buy them new now they may be the 08+ config which won't need the bracket. Not sure about the 2.5i though... Then your next challenge is wheel clearance...

new roof rack set up

[low-n-slow]

Very nice. Would look pretty sharp with a black bike up top

[Spincity9080]

Just wanted to post my factory rack with inno fairin for you guys



Not the craziest thing ever but I think it needed the grenade.... Not the biggest sticker fan! Hope you guys like. I just got my first Subaru a week ago

[slowhat]

who's taken the Inno logo off? Does it require a lot of work/would it be better to just cover in vinyl?

Just flip your fairing over. If its like my Yakima the backside is blank.

good tip. i don't own the fairing yet, but i've got to try the Inno because my OEM bars with 2 Yakima Frontloaders are !@#$ing loud! It's made my sunroof useless because of the noise.

I really like the look of your tire setup. 9.5 wide with just a little stretch on the tires?

No rubbing issues? I'm running 235's on 17 now. But I just have a 2.5i with a basic wrx lowering spring. If a 255 fit in my car I would pick these rims up in a second.

I tried to stay stock with the offset, would a +25 even work with my car?

I think it would just pull the whole car together.

I've pulled off the Inno sticker on the fairing. It came off in one piece for me. Heat it up or pour hot water on it first to make it easier.

There was a "shadow" left on mine where the sticker used to be but it's not really noticable.
