Pilkington Windshield

  • Chips/cracks:
Rating 5.0

The glass we’re on now is a Pilkington, replaced and calibrated at a shop closer to home. This glass has lasted 3x longer than the others combined and recently took a strike from a nickel-sized rock :)

Pros: lasted 3x longer, resisted rock strike

Hawk Performance Brake pads

I put Hawk Performance drilled and slotted on my 2017 STI. Ceramic pads. Have saved my car a couple times when assholes decided to jump the line and do a U-turn in front of me.

Pros: saved car from accidents
Vehicle: Subaru

OEM Subaru Tires

I had one of these. I leased a 2017 XT Premium for 3 years. I had zero issues with it over the ~ 30K miles. It was the first new car I'd owned that never had any warranty claims and never saw the inside of a dealer until the day I returned it. I changed oil and filters and swapped out the crappy OEM rubber for decent tires

Pros: no warranty issues
Mileage: 48280 km

MICHELIN Tires

I put a set of Michelin Crossclimate 2 on my 2016 OBL over a year and a half ago and would not switch to or recommend any other tire for all around use here in New England. Amazing traction in any kind of situation I've been in.

Pros: amazing traction, all situations

I went with the Yokohama Avid Ascend GTs. Very similar tire just higher quality than the stock. Replaced my stock Avid GTs at 46k. Up to 58k now and I can say I like them.

Pros: higher quality than stock

Rating 4.0

I have my second set of Yokohama Geolanders GO15s on my '14. The first set had inconsistent tire wear because I let them go without rotation a little too long. I replaced them at 50k. If they had worn evenly I feel I could have gotten the full 65k out of them.

The road noise and mileage are just as good as the Continentals that came stock on mine. I have that little extra grip on the gravel and dirt back roads.

Pros: extra grip, gravel and dirt
Cons: inconsistent tire wear
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 50000 km

Falken Tires

I put Falken RT660s on my STI. The grip level is amazing but a heavy, AWD car can be hard on these tires unless you are set up with the appropriate amount of camber.

Pros: amazing grip level
Cons: hard on tires
Vehicle: Subaru

OEM Subaru Timing belt kit

Have the same car, parts should be about $350 if you want 100% OEM parts: Labor seems right and reasonable to me, parts just seem to expensive.

Pros: reasonable labor
Cons: expensive parts
Vehicle: Subaru

OEM Subaru AC compressor
OtakuTacos
  • Cooling performance:
Rating 1.0

I have a 2018 and had to get a new compressor. I have a great mechanic and he straight up tells me that Subaru a/c are just garbage. I have an ‘09 Corolla and a ‘17 F-150 work vehicle, and both of those put out ice cold a/c no issues. Even with the new a/c, coolant, and everything else, it still pretty weak.

Cons: weak performance, poor quality

  • Ride comfort:
Rating 1.0

Those are the worst tires I’ve ever had on an Outback and I don’t get why everyone wants or likes such insanely heavy stiff tires. They are also ansotkrkt horrible in winter on ice and snow and caused my car to slide and perform like crap.

Pros: heavy stiff tires
Cons: horrible in winter
