Wheels

Does anyone know how much these wheels cost I want them for the Baja I think it will make it look more like a truck with the steel wheels.

Those are basic steel Forester rims. Very common.

I *think* "subarurabbit" (Roger) has a set that he is attempting to get rid of. My impression is that these things are rather heavy, but extreamly durable.

baja03 · 01-12-2007, 08:56 AM

Its true they are way more durable then the alloys

KD7000 · 01-12-2007, 10:10 AM

Those are horrible looking.

baja03 · 01-12-2007, 10:14 AM

But they are strong and more durable

JCity · 01-12-2007, 10:27 AM

haha... there groddy!

my dads forester has a set, these wheels are all over the place.

ten80 · 01-12-2007, 10:31 AM

yeah, don't pay more than $150 for a set. The dealership will charge you that much for ONE wheel!

baja03 · 01-12-2007, 10:47 AM

thanks for the insight

Wiscon_Mark · 01-12-2007, 11:46 AM

For offroading, they'd be good wheels.

Ugly? yes.

janikphoto · 01-12-2007, 12:35 PM

I could see them looking good on a lifted, off-road baja. And yes, they should be EASY to find. Those forester wheels are a dime a dozen. Check some of the popular subie-friendly junkyards...

baja03 · 01-15-2007, 02:15 PM

I got some nice tires already and 05 springs on my 03 Baja but no body lift yet but I think with those rims it would look better. These are the tires i have right now:

And they're heavier, they rust, and they're harder to balance.

Bleh. I wouldn't pay more than $20 each or so.

What do you mean by 05 springs? Off an Outback or Legacy?

baja03 · 01-15-2007, 02:48 PM

Off the 2005 Baja they set higher then the 2003 Baja about a 1.5"

seowitz · 01-15-2007, 05:41 PM

baja03 · 01-15-2007, 11:04 PM
