ISO a decent after market down pipe, Cobb Accessport, wheel spacers, rear Forester trailing arms, and O2 sensors for a

2004 WRX.

You don't need the trailing arms. They are the same as what is on your car. You need the trailing arm brackets, or just make spacer blocks to space your stock ones down a bit.

Hmmm. I always thought the Foresters and Outbacks had the same brackets, and the Impreza and regular Legacy was different.

But yes, those will work for sure lol

I have a new set of '06 Forester struts and springs on the WRX wagon, and am trying to fit 215/65-16 General Grabber AT2's. When put on there was serious rub on the inside of the rear wheel well on the body of the car, and it brought the wheel forward enough to rub on the side skirt unless addressed. I have had 2 other people with Imprezas of similar years fit this exact tire on stock rims with little issue, but wondering if them being coupes had some part in fitting. I want those tires on this wagon one way or the other since I have a need for a aggressive tire.

Just get the Outback railing arm brackets, or block yours down an inch and it will cause the tire to be located further back in the wheel opening. Then you shouldn't see that rubbing anymore.

Yes but also running a stock offset rim isn't helping your problem cause foresters and outbacks have a 48mm offset which your stock wheels are a 55mm offset which is putting those big tires to far in

That is one of the issues I thought which would lead to the rubbing, and an  idea I have toyed with if I can find a reasonably priced set of rims that I like. The newer FXT alloys are something I have been considering.
