well nothing new yet, but looking to get new rims asap, since wicked big meet is coming June 18th, i want to get some XXR 521. been thinking of being very ballsy and going 18x10 all around, or 18x8.5

as you can see in the links the 18x10 has a dual level kind of lip and the 18x8.5 has not some much of a dish

Well wagon has been sold!!! havent been on in a few months since the last edit was July...oops =) well i sold it for 3700, that was a hell of a hit. The subframe, engine cradle and front bumper suport were all rusted beyond repair. Sold it to someone who wanted to invest the time and money into replacing all the pecies that hold the front end together basically. Never got around to getting coilovers for the wagon with those nice 18x9.5 rotas, but within 2-3 weeks of having the Legacy i have coilovers already on it, just getting rims hopefullly very very soon. I will create a new "build" thread for that to share with you guys

I'm hoping the newer model turbo Legacy? Those are dope. The older wagons are hella quick even with 5 people lol.

Hey I live in NY and don't have THAT much rust. And the car has been driven all year every year since bought. Just gotta take care of the car ;).
