Subaru Legacy parts reviews

So I have run the cc2 on my 2010 legacy for about 30k, I'm pretty familiar with their good and bad points. They wear very well so long as you rotate every 5k or less and keep your alignment to spec. After 30k I'm still at 8/32. They have phenomenal snow traction and outstanding rain performance. Summer performance is fine, not dedicated summer sport tire level but fine for me. They can be a little bit louder but nothing that bothers. They do pick up gravel, so you do hear that as it gets ejected and they will cut your mileage by about 2-3 mpg, also no big deal. All in all I find them to be the best tires I've ever run on an all wheel drive car and I will always run them on my subie unless something is proven better.

Agree on the Goodyears. I have them on my Subaru Legacy, really improved the handling. Quicker turn in, quiet and smooth.

In my state I see people driving around with cosmetic mirrors taped to their car all the way to not even having a mirror all together.

The mirror is still there, you’re fine.

My Legacy is a bit heavier and automatic, for that I went with Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires for snow capable year rounders. They're absolutely amazing, not too loud in summer, very capable as a snow tire.

I swapped my fog light bulbs out for some Hella-brand yellows, but they ain’ hella yellow lol. Still, I like the look.

I don’t recommend reusable performance filters since they can alter air flow enough that you end up running a little lean with a turbo charged engine. This is why a lot of turbo charged engines can’t just have a cold air intake slapped on without a tune. This actually occurred with my 08’ Subaru Legacy GT. Stick to a quality standard filter that offers optimal air flow and filtering capability.

I remembered the old thermostat looking like it did, so I waited a few hours to let the engine cool down then swapped the new thermostat for the old one, turned the engine on and no overheating. I've been driving the car as it is for a while now without any problems other than I can't drive long-distance without it running too hot (ex. I drove 4 hours a couple times a year traveling for college, and in the summer the car sometimes would overheat by the time I got to my destination).

my 22 legacy has had one windshield repair and I have had to fill in 3 tiny cracks the past two years of owning.

I went through 3 windshields on my 21 Legacy. I owned it for 3 years.

Put those on a 2010 legacy and am not happy with the ride quality and they made noise. Went to kyb. Nothing like throwing money away.
