Hi guys,
New member here - spent way too much time lurking around this forum!
recently purchased an MY07 Forester XS and would like to improve its offroad performance.
I have been doing a lot of reading and everything on this site has been very helpful.
Only accessory to date is the addition of a Subaxtreme Sump Guard.
Next is some new rubber! I would like to go up a profile size to 215/65/r16 (from 215/60/r16) like a lot have done on here. I realise it is an increase in diameter of more than 15mm which would make it illegal here in South Australia but would like to do it. Obvious choices are the Geolander AT-S, BF Goodrich AT's or General Grabber AT2's.
BF Goodrich AT's smallest size is 215/70/r16 so that basically rules them out.
Geolanders look good but I like the aggressive nature of the General Grabbers.
My question is - How do the General Grabbers go in terms of performance and quality? and how do they go over here in Australian conditions?
Ive seen one or two people using them on here.
'Paffoh' has used them and loves them, and is quite relevant to me being from Aus, same size etc etc
So just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with them.
Also are they easy to source in Australia?
Thanks guys!
