99 Liberty rims need advice

Post by cheapassparts » Sat May 31, 2008 7:34 pm

Hi people, my RX wagon seems fairly low, it has 15" 205/50 on it they are on the way out after 20k.

Im not looking for an off roader but i do hit some rough dirt tracks. Would rims and tyres of a outback or forrester fit without rubbing?

put simply. Doubt it.

foresters rims have a different offset to libs, same with outbacks.

do you bottom out anywhere? is it really necessary? maybe just some higher profile tyres on your stock rims will help out.

The undercarriage is hammered. I have bashed the transpan and sheared heads of the bolts. A wiser man would upgrade the suspension. I'm a Quad in a wheelchair, getting into a Forester or Outback was just to hard.

Higher profiles it is. Thanks
