Anyone run 215/60/16 on a 95-99 Legacy?

I bought a set of tires for my wife's "now departed" Forester. We pick up the Legacy tomorrow and before I spend some $$ mounting those tires on wheels I'd like to get an idea of how well they'll fit if anyone has done so before.

stock GT size is 205/55/16, so those tires (assuming 16" wheel) are
1.3% larger, so when your speedo is 60mph, you'll be going 60.8mph.

But they'll fit just fine. Should provide a cushy ride with the bigger profile.

Perfect, these are going on the L which at the moment has something like 195/65/14's. I'd just hate to have perfectly good set of rubbers in the garage going unused.

I ran it on my stockers...and it rub in the back struts..mainly the back struts were temper with. other than that, it fills up the wheel well pretty good :eek:

How much does it rub, only on hard bumps or frequently? Got any pics?

[2.5GT]

it rubs near the bottom of the perch..nothing a hammer couldn't fix :grin:

no really, i took my rear suspension off a couple of times..and didn't line it up correctly..so it sits kinda awkward position..where it "pokes" out a little. so i think that's why it rub against my tires.
