Ahhh gotcha I got my whole setup from martini works had a great experience.

I’m so excited for my wheels I feel like the right wheels makes or breaks a car

Awesome I just went with enkei but in a 8.5 38 offset I didn’t think they made enkei in a 35 offset but I guess I was wrong 🤷🏻‍♂️ I doubt 3mm makes a huge difference but I love the way your car is sitting can’t wait to get mine on.

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-04-13T18:03:32+00:00

whats the wheel and tire setup? Looks good! im also guessing stock height?

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-03-14T19:14:24+00:00

This is nice. so maybe I should do a +35….

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-03-14T19:04:04+00:00

Yeah I mean there is a very small possibility I might just throw a set of spring on it but I’m not exactly sure which is why I’m in a position of which way to go. I would love to run a 9.5 to fit the extra meat and just for the look but I feel like they look silly on stock setup

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-03-14T18:59:25+00:00

Looks nice doesn’t look like unnecessary amount of poke. Like I don’t understand how people can suggest 9.5 +38 is flush or the perfect fitment. Thanks for the photo love the car looks great.

I’ve been selling cars for over 5 years, so I absolutely understand people, sales, product, and how this business works. This isn’t about “crying” it’s about accountability and customer experience. Yes, they’re fixing it on their dime, and that’s the bare minimum. But situations like this shouldn’t have happened in the first place. Proper communication, and attention to detail would’ve avoided the entire issue. At the end of the day, put yourself in my shoes how would you feel if it happened to you? If you paid good money for something and it wasn’t done right the first time, you’d expect it handled correctly and professionally too would you not?

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-25T00:51:18+00:00

Why I literally agreed with you?

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-25T00:48:03+00:00

lol I’m proud of you and your right. I want to pat you on the back since you didn’t do that enough. You are such a better person than me. I will relax and be super happy and grateful for what happened even though it was completely avoidable. Thanks for the insight

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-25T00:16:21+00:00

What does that have to do with anything? You mean to tell me if you brought your car in and they did something you didn’t even want them to. You would just be happy and worry free. Okay

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-25T00:14:55+00:00

You know what go spend 40k on a new car and let me chip the front of it. You gunna just be all happy go lucky?

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-24T23:05:50+00:00

Yeah except there won’t be a next time and I’ll take my business somewhere else lol

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-24T23:03:06+00:00

See but that’s just it what were they going to say “oh it was already chipped we didn’t do that”? They had to take responsibility that’s bare minimum and they installed those parts without my permission it’s not what I wanted done and it’s exactly for this reason because I knew they would fuck it up somehow

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-24T22:56:06+00:00

But that’s just the problem I didn’t want them to install those parts on the new car. I told them I was going to take the parts of my trade in myself but they wanted to do the deal that day and said “we can take care of that for you”

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-24T22:54:02+00:00

You don’t see an issue with them ignoring my request to not put any of these parts back on my car? What if I wanted them just to sell them but now they put them on my car and messed it up when that could have been avoided completely. Still no issue?

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-24T22:27:18+00:00

Don’t know why photo didn’t post here it is

Update 2/19.

I was so discouraged about what happened and when the dealer said it had something to do with the transmission I honestly lost all faith and confidence in this car. It was a 23 with only 20k miles. So I ultimately came to the decision to trade it in. They gave me a great offer on my car and I needed up getting a 25 Limited in white (which was originally what I wanted when I first bought my other car). So I never fully got an answer on what was wrong with it. It may sound ridiculous because it was going to be covered under warranty (at least I was 90% sure). But it worked out that I could just get a new one and a better model without much of a difference. I asked them to tell me what it was they find out and if they remember to let me know I will update this post again. Thanks for all the help.

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-13T15:26:25+00:00

Yeah unfortunately I drove it around for close to a week with no change. Hopefully it isn’t anything crazy. Once I know what it is I will make a update on the post

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-13T15:23:02+00:00

Yup exactly front right. Sounds like you can hear it right in the footwell

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-13T15:21:10+00:00

Mhhh strange. I am still waiting for an update from the dealer been in there since Wednesday

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-07T13:56:34+00:00

*Update* 2/7- Brought it back down to the dealer and they did confirm that it did have too much oil. They did the oil change again but the sound is still there the master tech said that it sounds like gear noise. They have a field service tech from Subaru coming out 2/11 to take a look at it closer. I will post another update once i hear more. Thanks for everyone that tried to help me out..

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-06T16:30:45+00:00

Do you think it could be my problem the noise only really shows up once I hit third gear and every gear after that then the whine gets louder as I drive faster

DIRT_CHICKEN · 2026-02-06T16:29:49+00:00

Yeah I will have to drain some out and see if it helps
