Fresh off the lot I made several upgrades to my 2022 Crosstrek Sport for adventuring off-road. Unlike many customizers, I really wanted to maintain as much of my car's on-road feel, highway manners, and mileage as I could while still making it more capable off-road. I was looking to expand the car's capabilities, and was not pursuing a certain aesthetic. In addition to upgrading to 215/65/17 Yokohama tires, -20mm offset wheels, skid plates, 1.5" lift with RA spaces, mud flaps, and rear spare tire holder, I got the +0.5" front and +0.5" overload rear springs with B6 struts. The ride is perfect on and off road. In doing so, I hardly sacrificed any highway manners, noting only a bit softer cornering and increased oversteer which is mostly due to the tires. The stiffer springs tame the rebound of the slightly heavier tires without making the car feel harsh riding around town. Cornering on smooth and rough pavement is better than stock (the 2021-22 Crosstrek already had slightly stiffer springs than the 2018-20). Off-road the ride is great. With the +150 lbs from the full sized spare tire and tire swing, the overload springs and B6s are very well matched, with a nice balanced handling feel between front and back, even when not carrying anything in the back. My Subaru mechanic remarked how good the handling was. I really glad I "sprang" for the overload rears and B6s - the extra stiffness was just what the car needed. If you are running heavier tires, you probably need this kit. If you have a rear spare tire holder, you probably need this kit.
