245/45/18s ? damn ... you must have some good ground clearance.

The body spacers are good for about 1 inch IIRC. The other 3.8 inches of added clearance over the Legacy (or whatever it is) comes from longer struts/springs.
On the 245's (before I raised the car up an extra inch) the front bumper just cleared a normal height curb when parking.
The snow tires are actually taller than the 18's, plus I just raised the car about 3/4", so it's probably got around the same clearance as a stock legacy (while still looking lowered
), which is nowhere near the clearance of a stock outback. Those things are monster trucks.
