Lifted Subaru Tire Size Chart
We have been getting a lot of questions about what tire size one can run on their lifted Subaru lately so we've compiled a list of verified tire sizes on different cars in the RalliTEK shop. We have 2 different columns, one is the standard size that we will tell anyone in the stated lift range that they can run and then the other column is for an aggressive fitment.
AGGRESSIVE TABLES: The aggressive fitments usually comes with the potential for minor trimming, cutting/flattening of a pinch weld or at the very least, using a heat gun to melt the inner fender out of the way of the tire.
NOTE: This guide is just a reference, there are a lot of variables that can affect fitment. Please refer to you local wheel and tire dealer for confirmation.
Tire sizes with an * next to them are our preferred choice of wheel and tire size for sidewall height, tire selection, and offroad use.
All tire sizes were determined using Method or Sparco Wheels with a more aggressive offset than the OEM wheels offer.
