Subaru Car Tyres

etyres supply and fit a comprehensive range of high performance Subaru tyres and our prices are considerably less expensive than the main dealerships and tyre depots We also provide a free mobile fitting service which means you can choose to have your tyres fitted at home or at your place of work, so you don't have to waste time in a tyre depot or garage.

Here are some examples of tyres fitted to popular Subaru models – but we advise you to check the size of the tyres currently fitted to your vehicle before placing your order. You can find this information on the sidewall of your existing tyre. Alternatively you can call our National Sales Team on 0800 028 9000 for help and impartial advice or to place an order.

Impreza

Otherwise known as the ‘rally monster’ the restyled Impreza hatchback comes with a prestige badge, fine handling and near perfect steering. The tyre of choice on the Subaru Impreza is the Bridgestone RE050 or Yokohama Advan. Toyo Proxes T1-R, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric, Avon ZV5 and Pirelli P Zero Nero are all up to the job and will deliver high performance Impreza enthusiasts.

Legacy

Styling and comfort come before handling on the Legacy following its make over, but there’s still plenty of grip and it retains its off road capabilities. Bridgestone Potenza RE050, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric and Toyo T1R high performance tyres are the perfect tyre for demanding drivers and offer exceptional handling and cornering at higher speeds, together with control and safety in the wet.

Forester

The Forester rides well and is good off road, it comes fitted with Yokohama Geolander tyres, a high performance SUV tyre. Avon ZV5 and Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric SUV tyres are favoured by many Forester drivers and etyres recommend them for their enhanced braking performance, grip and sharper steering response.

Our National Sales Team can provide impartial advice about a number of suitable replacement tyres for your Subaru depending on your model and driving style. Call now on 0800 028 9000.

Background Information on Subaru

Since 1972, Subaru engineers have refused to steer from the mantra that positioning the engine and drivetrain in a symmetrical, straight line layout while sending power directly to all four wheels is the only way to drive. Subaru’s Symmetrical AWD has become the cornerstone upon which it builds every car it makes.
Subaru engines sit lower down than conventional engines aiding natural balance for exceptional smoothness coupled with low vibration and noise. Its Boxer diesel engine is a world first and unique to Subaru being the world’s first horizontally-opposed diesel engine for a passenger car.

Changing Subaru Tyres

Changing Subaru Car Tyres should require 3 primary choices:

• The overall quality of the tyre (durability, wear, ratings, cost) desired for the Subaru
• The speed rating that the Subaru Tyres should have depending upon the driver's average and occasional "fastest-driven" speed
• Deciding if local and/or regional weather patterns merit keeping two sets of tyres for dry vs. wet road conditions

Further, if an owner wishes to put tyres on different sized wheels for the Subaru, a careful decision about what size tyres will be valid for that Subaru is required. If, for example, a larger wheel size is desired, then the profile (height) and/or the width must be reduced to avoid damaging the drive train. A 195/65/15 tyre for that Subaru, for instance, on a 17" rim, could legitimately become a 165/65 (narrower) or a 195/55 (shorter) but could not stay a 195/65 as before. A handy calculator for changing tyre sizes can be found here.

All tyres for any Subaru vehicle should be fitted using the proper torque, according to the manufacturer's specifications. Torque is the amount of pressure used to tighten the wheel nuts. For tyres that are fitted to the following Subaru models, the torque settings are listed. Also, the recommended air pressure to put into tyres for Subaru models is listed. Further, the alternate tyre size for Subaru models.

Note: Further information on tyres and car batteries for Subaru vehicles may be found at the manufacturer's own website... Subaru
