I found some cheap ones on eBay. The PF01 has a 75mm bore and gorilla doesn't make that size. The aluminum ones were $12 each so I passed for now. Ill keep looking around.

Never seen a 75mm bore, might check with TireRack they should have them since they sell PF01's.

Got the car back with more problems then when it went to the body shop..... If I shift from 1st to 2nd at redline my tranny shakes horribly.... my trunk button doesn't even work.... and they never fixed my steering wheel..... i'm pissed... but I have the car back in my possession. I'll snap some pictures tomorrow of side shots and hopefully have coils on soon.

Nick, Where did you get spacers? Did you need anything else to run them?

Thanks!

I ordered the spacers from PRE racing in Oregon. They are a big Subaru Performance shop over here. Been busy between shuffling the car around back to the body shop and to the dealership to make sure everything is okay with the car and work. Uploading those pictures on Friday when I get off and can finally relax and have the car back.

Did you have to use the spacers for clearance? Or did you try and fit the wheels without spacers and have no issues?

Uploading picks of drop after coilovers! No spacers required. I used spacers in rear to flush out the wide body rear end. Looks great. Wheels deff clear brakes fine.

Thanks Nick. I want to retain as close to OEM offset as possible for handling reasons. Just need to ensure that there is adequate clearance around the suspension components and arches. If you have any photos of those areas you could share that'd be great!

This weekend i'll be changing my ride height a bit so i'll take loads of photos. Everything clears perfectly and I can fit my fingers in my fenders atm! This is also a good close to stock upgrade if you look at my math. basically the same weight just some more contact patch with the slightly wider rim/tire plus a way better look!

P.s car handles amazing now! No body roll! I'm almost debating not upgrading sway bars but I may get the Perrin front n rear just for kicks n giggles.
