Well I did finally remove the long bolts holding the lateral control arms on. It took a week of soaking it in Kroil, heat and an impact gun. The bolts actually look really good and I probably could reuse them but I wont because I have grown to hate them. Anyway I am replacing the bearings and backing plates but my question is should I replace the wheel studs with longer ones while the spindle is out? I see all kinds of talk of spacers being used on many different wheels. I have not bought tires or wheels yet but I am planning on using 205/45/16 front and 245/40/17. I like to have a little side wall on my tires and I plan on driving the car regularly on the street. Prices are pretty good for rubber in those sizes as well. Probably a 6-7" rim on the front and an 8-9" rim on the rear. I like the XXR stuff and I am hoping Wayne will put up a selection of compatible rim sizes or styles for the 818. Also does anyone have a rear antilock brake reluctor ring that they are not going to use(2002 WRX wagon), I broke one by accident. Please PM me if you do and give me a price.
