Not sure about Subaru's cover in terms of how good it is or how long it lasts. But I went with a custom Covercraft cover and absolutely love it!

I went with custom WeatherShield HP. Seems that the price has gone up or maybe I got it at a deal, I don't recall. I paid low 300's for it. But depending on where you live and where you store your car, you can choose the cover that suits you. I chose this as I experience all kinds of weather, from mild to brutal, so I wanted something that didn't tear up easily after a storm and what not. I also really wanted it because of the matching paint color, so that hyped me up. ![]() Most covers get some bad reviews out there including these. But out of all the searching I did, I found these to be the best for my needs and some of the better car covers out there. EDIT: Actually, to edit my post, I bought it from here, so maybe it's cheaper here. https://www.autoanything.com/brands/102A324.aspx |

As long as you're running aftermarket coilovers, these should work. In terms of your rim size/choice and tire size/choice, it just depends what you're going for. If you're looking for styling, this probably suits your needs, but it will make the car a slow boat and change its dynamics. If you're looking to do some forced induction in the near future, this could be a good way to go.
