What challenges did you face while putting it together? – The pictures of the LP Aventure project cars that I stumbled across on google while looking at Outbacks. What inspired you to choose this modification style? I noticed very few of the 3.6R models showed up on used car sites so I figured there had to be something special to those that made people hang on to them for so long, so I pulled the trigger and got one to call my own. I knew I wanted something with ground clearance, and I knew Subaru made a bigger six-cylinder engine, so I looked into those. When this car finally died on me, I knew I wanted another Subaru, but wanted to stay away from the EJ25 engine. It had its own issues and trying to work through those and modify it on my own grew my appreciation for the way the car was designed. I was the 7th owner of that Legacy and it was on its second engine by time I got it (the most recent one dropped in was the EJ25). The Legacy was the first Subaru I’ve ever driven and its prowess in the snow made me fall in love with winter, and the symmetrical all-wheel drive system, for the first time in my life. – I had a little old 1998 Subaru Legacy GT that I had bought off Facebook a year and a half before getting my Outback. Why did you choose this particular model for your project? “Now, having a camera, nicer hiking shoes, and a very capable vehicle gives me plenty of reason and ability to get out and explore places I’ve never seen before (and that most people will never see in their lifetime).” Now, having a camera, nicer hiking shoes, and a very capable vehicle give me plenty of reason and ability to get out and explore places I’ve never seen before (and that most people will never see in their lifetime). – I grew up doing wilderness high-adventure trips with my dad, granddad, and uncles in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and the fun and challenges we had exploring out there stuck with me. How did you become interested in off-roading? The end result looks great and screams confidence in your ability to go anywhere and do anything. He did everything that was necessary to prepare the rig for year-round offroading, added suspension lift (even though the stock setup offered substantial ground clearance), protection, a roof rack for gear and the spare tire, and lighting upgrades. The modification style was dictated by his priorities and driving habits. We met Luke from Rochester, Minnesota, who chose the Touring version of the 2019 Subaru Outback as a project vehicle for his recreational activities.

This crossover has the shape and driving style of a station wagon smoothly combined with the off-road capabilities of an SUV.
#6th gen 4runner wheels on 3rd gen driver
To go on weekend trips knowing that the car is capable to take you there safely and use the vehicle as a daily driver enjoying comfort during the weekdays, you may want to take a closer look at the fifth-generation Subaru Outback. If you love the outdoors and like to go camping and exploring the wilderness without going too crazy and extreme, you probably don’t need a bulletproof offroader with a solid roll cage and long travel suspension. My Subaru lets me see the world like never before. I also love the roof rack because I, as someone who loves trying and making new things, can build virtually anything imaginable on that rack.

No seriously, those LP1 wheels and the lush brown leather interior make it a dream come true for me. Not yet sure if I'm going to keep these next time it's due for tires or get a set of either 10-13 Trail Edition alloys or FJC steelies.What do you love about your vehicle? – Bronze wheels on a white car. Plus, these should clear Tundra brakes in the future, as long as I remember to get a 16" spare as well. I'm not sold on the look quite yet, but I needed tires and the price was right the wheels and tires together were cheaper than getting a set of 31x10.5 15" K02s on my stock wheels. Haven't done any serious off-roading with them yet, but I have put about 4000 commuting miles on them with no rubbing and no issues. The wheels are 16" and the tires are 265/70/16, so I was confident they would fit my non-lifted truck. This was actually a few months ago, but I haven't seen any other 3rd gens with these wheels, so I thought I would share a pic in case anyone else was curious. Bought some take-off OEM wheels from a 2016 Tacoma TRD Off-Road from a local Toyota dealer, cheaper than I've seen them go for on Craigslist as well.
