Legacy BD5 Wheel sizes


Bobby

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

I did a search but couldn’t find the information I needed.

 

I have a Legacy BD5 RSB and I would like to know if 18x7.5  wheels with 215/45/18 tyres will fit and have no issues with scrubbing. I will still run the stock suspension and stock rise height.

Hi Bobby.

 

Unless someone tried that exact setup there's no certainty.

There's a thread with many-many wheels. Yours will be the third wheel in that post https://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2239019#6

Width should be a non-issue granted the same offset. But you're trying to add an inch of height. So will need 13 mm of clearance up top.

Please also note, some tires, I'm looking at you RE003, are mighty fat compared to the same sizes from other manufacturers.

Seems the biggest clearance issue will be between the tire and the spring perch. Just measure how much you currently got. If there's less than 15 mm in there you have your answer.

People use Outback struts as a workaround. Bit dodgy for my liking.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
