I love my 215/70R15's they made a HUGE difference. I can't even explain but I did go from highway tyres to All Terrains at the same time. The size, ie. lift was a good first step but 225/70R15 would be the go. When you go bigger tyres too you will need 5, not 4. As your spare must be the same size ...

These are just the 4 spacers that go ontop of the strut so i'm guessing this fits in the category of suspension lift.

Lift Kit help

Hey new to the forum. Currently drive a 2002 Forester and have been looking into getting it lifted a little to allow for bigger tyres, getting more clearance for offroad use. I don't have much knowledge or experience in this field but from what I've read, installing spacers between the strut tops an...
