I'd like to not tear my paint to shreds. That's why I got mudflaps, they protect the hell out of my side skirts and bumper.

I am going to do rally cross and drive only on nice dirt or not ***ed up gravel. Courses, not off roading.

I bought the car to make it LOOK sick, drive FAST, and LAST me until its paid off, not to tear to shreds.

I'm not tripping about paint chips up front, I'll repaint it next year. That's what happens in the mountain course and track when following people... so that's reasonable to me. Beating my car in ice, snow, rocks, and **** aint cool to me, so bottom line, its not happening

and hell no, using my tires in dirt or snow may result in ***ing up my whole car. I will buy tires meant for mud and snow before rally x-ing or going to the snow

HAHAHA I don't care about my car either as long as its not smashed up. The paint on my car is 9yrs old, it shows it's age and I use it and abuse it. Actually Steven if you go to tirerack and buy the forester or o6 wrx steelies they are 16x6.5 but according to a bunch of folks on NASIOC they still WILL clear the 4pots so they will be fine on your car. A few guys have posted pictures with the steelies prooving they fit. The steelies are $49/ea and would come from Reno. Not a bad deal IMO. I may actually get them after I replace my rotors this wekend

you didn't start driving your car until after you were about to sell your car. you only started driving it because it was about to be gone lol


but i DO give you props for actually driving it. BUT i would say I drive my car ALOT more than most people at our meets IF NOT the MOST! I've racked up 15k in 7 months and had a track day and probably 5k miles of mountain course/berryessa runs/. difference is i don't beat it up because my paint is one year old, not 7
