    How are the GR2s?

    Nice build. Rockin the morettes like it's 03 again! They're so rare these days but still a good look.

    the gr2's are great. the forester handles amazingly. only roll it has is from the tires with the tall sidewall.
    looking to get some 17' wheels with a smaller sidewall to finish up the suspension stuff on it

    That's good to hear. I'm considering getting a set. I figured since I'll be putting on a relatively mild spring (prodrive), I wouldn't need something adjustable.

    And x2 on the morettes, I remember when I first got my suby I really wanted a set. Looks good man.

    That thing is gonna be a monster after the hybred/rotated goes in. Started from the ground up, the best way to do it. That grill, even though it's a minor mod, really hooks up that front end. The carbon fiber hood looks allot better now.

    Can't wait for that Forester to slowly turn into an XTi!

    Have you ever seen the morettes painted up raccoon style? I think it'd set off the CF hood better.
