Also sporting "new" '06 Impreza wheels & tires. Initial impressions are that the ride is very nice, of course, it should be--the old assemblies had more than 115K on them. These have less than 15K. Handling at anything over 20mph is great. Below that, anything snappy makes it feel like the sidewalls are collapsing. I'm going to test out the handling on the long way home this afternoon.
The rear sags a little...probably around an inch. The stance is also a bit lower...but probably not even an inch all the way around, I think. I didn't have the presence of mind to check wheelgaps before the install. I will check the oilpan (I'm assuming it's the lowest point on the undercarriage)clearance tonight to see where we're at.
