What floor mats would you all recommend for rain/snow? - Page 3

domvitale · 03-20-2018, 10:05 AM

I have a pair or WeatherTechs on my wife's Forester. We have he trunk mat, as well and front, and rears. Worth every penny. The WTs are in the mail for my WRX as we speak. Enjoy!

what's wrong w/ the OEM All Weather Mats?

I got them for a $70 dealer add on and the cargo mat as well... and never had an issue

The types mostly being discussed here are mostly full liners that form a dish fully covering your carpet, rather than just a mat sitting at the bottom. Having a full liner is pretty nice, a bit easier to clean up a big mess of snow/mud.

Some manufacturers have pretty good coverage from their mats, but the current generation of Subarus I feel like less so.

That being said, nothing wrong if that's what you're looking for.

Exactly what you said, they are mats. They don't really do much besides add an extra layer over the carpet.

Personally I’m a huge fan of the weather tech brand, always have they’re mats and they’ve always done the job!

Flapjax101 · 04-15-2018, 10:18 PM

I sound like a broken violin but I can also vouch for weathertech. I have had them for 5+ years and still look like brand new.

mcursch88 · 04-24-2018, 01:05 PM

My car came with WeatherTech mats, and my god they are awesome. It covers all vital areas up front, and even covers the entire carpeted floor of the rear seating area

pdisselkoen · 04-27-2018, 06:19 PM

Another vote against the Subie mats. I have two sets and they are ok but leave open gaps that allow the carpet to get pretty hashed.

Gandalf_The_Grey · 04-30-2018, 11:57 PM

I demanded the dealer throw in OEM all-weather mats when I purchased my hatch. They've held up great for the past 4 years, look great, and are fairly easy to clean.

ekwrx16 · 06-03-2018, 09:19 PM

Weather tech

nyev · 06-09-2018, 07:42 PM

Picked up WeatherTechs from my dealer when I bought the car, highly worth it.

ryanl194 · 06-25-2018, 09:48 AM

weathertech without a doubt easiest to clean best materials best fit, worth every penny. non car people even say how nice they look in my car

Matts1993 · 07-07-2018, 09:35 PM

+1 for weather tech.

coRay17 · 11-01-2018, 09:55 PM

I’ve had weathertech and they’re awesome. But, I got a set of Husky Liners and they cover so much more! I love them. Just as easy to clean as the weather techs but better and cheaper. The fitment is perfect and the sides go up a bit further helping keep things from sliding past and building up underneath

ironrangeimpreza · 11-02-2018, 09:58 AM

Weathertech is the way. Decent prices and worth every dollar

makhan · 12-12-2018, 12:42 PM

+1 on Weathertech. This may sound like overkill, but I cut up a garbage to its max surface area and put that under the sides of the mat for so no carpet is exposed. If you are in a state that sands roads, those particles can be hard to get out of carpet.

SirBrass · 12-12-2018, 12:47 PM

I have OEM Subaru all weather mats and they're doing a good job so far.

namazakepaul · 12-15-2018, 02:18 PM

i like the weathertech too. The biggest reason is how easy they are to clean.

oichan · 12-15-2018, 02:48 PM

I run WeatherTechs in my STI and Husky in my WRX. The Husky does a better job but the WeatherTechs look nicer. I don't dd my STI and careful not to dirty my shoes before entry so the WeatherTechs does fine in the winter for me.

The only other down side on the Husky is that it covers up the gas filler door lever. Kind of a hassle sometimes poking my hand each time pulling up the liner to get to the lever as it has spikes on the bottom side.

In the warmer months I like to use the OE carpet mats although the OE rubber mats are nice too.

jasonwrx86 · 12-15-2018, 10:23 PM

Husky liner. Very durable plastic. I find rubber mats wear quickly under the clutch pedal.

EastEndRaceshop · 12-18-2018, 07:04 PM

In my experience, Weathertech has been very worth it for all seasons! High quality, and perfect for snow/rain/etc..

Get the Weathertech floor liners, worth the money.

viprklr · 12-26-2018, 04:51 PM

Weathertech is the only way to go. FWIW.

ricek1ller · 12-31-2018, 06:00 PM

I'd suggest Weather Tech.
