Did you buy the wheel and tyre combo secondhand? Did you get all five?

Look like the set I had on my lifted GD Impreza when I sold it, Outback 15's and the Nexens with the white writing facing outwards for increased offroad credibility!

Looks good Jayrod! You going to go for some extra lift?

Not that you need to, it's a mean stance it's already got there!

Got some offroad pics?

Cheers

Have you got any strut lift other than the outback struts?

It's common for people to go with the outback struts, 2 inch strut lift, heavy duty springs (more lift) and the tyres. They get some good lift but miss out on the stock droop.

A two inch lift kit all round will raise you up that little bit more and retain your current CV angles without issues. Check out Venom's liberty to see what that combination looks like

2 inch strut lift - Is that spacers?
What i really need is a front bash plate and new seats.

Been looking around but cant seem to find any.

Yes that is the term used for the spacers. So you wouldn't want to push the height any more without a full body kit - but you should be high enough with the strut lift only.

As for the bash plate and seats: I don't know where your local parts yards are or if you have any near you.
The bash plate can be taken from an L series, I've heard they fit easily - or easily modified to fit

Or you can do what most do and get a piece of steel/alloy sheet and fold it up accordingly.

Hey mate,
Nice wheels & tyres there, looks tough. I recently got some seats out of a Legacy, which would be the same as your car for $100 from a wrecker in Melbourne. Wring around & you should find some. Wreckers are used to freighting things for people so you can check interstate also & get freight at a reasonable cost.
