Subaru Forester XT Off-Road in South Lake Tahoe @ Twin Peaks Trail - Summer 2020 

Oh geez lol, good to know!

Haha hey!

I think you’re still being a little too generous. Reality is CVT’s aren’t suitable for this sort of thing. If you want a 2.0 turbo, simple AWD/4WD off-roader that can still get MPG in the 20’s city/highway, you’re better off with a Jeep Wrangler, which is exactly what we ended up getting.

Just good sandpit 12n28 and check what google reviews say, they say to enter from sandmill rd on a little dirt road and youll find it! Im heading there this weekend!

Yeah, it’ll be like night and day. I feel like the Toyo AT3 is a really good mix for on road (both wet and dry) and off road performance. They’ve performed well for me.

@@DonutSixActual Great! Thank you.

I’m running Toyo AT3’s in 245/65 on 17x8 +15. I could have fit 16’s depending on the wheel, and probably should have in hindsight. You have to test fit the wheel/offset though. Also, this tire fitment required modification to the pinch welds inside the fender on a 1.5” lift with multilink correction kit. You can do 235/65 without that. I get the feeling you may be able to fit a 245/65r17 easier with a 2” lift, but am uncertain.

@@DonutSixActual thank you! I'm thinking about going with a 235/65 on a 17x8 +35. Will this rub without any lift? I am planning on getting an ADF 2" lift down the road. Thanks again!

I'm sure it could, just depends on how motivated you are. I didn't realize it at the time, but I made things a lot harder on myself by taking things as slowly as I did. If you just send it, it'll be easier, but need ground clearance... Or need to not care about a little damage lol.

Not this time around, may do it for future outings. The benefit is minimal on vehicles like this, so it’s not a dealbreaker if you don’t.

245/65 17. In hindsight, I would have gone 235/65 for better torque.
