![]() From our perspective, it’s a bit much and just makes the Wilderness that much more visually appealing. The grille is larger, the LED foglamps are round and more pronounced, and it’s all bracketed by big, black cladding similar to what you’ll find on the new Solterra EV.

The Wilderness is definitely the coolest Outback, but its unique capability has its downsides (on-road handling, fuel economy), so don’t write off the regular versions as your go-to, SUV-besting wagon. Owners were already lifting their Outbacks even further off the ground and fitting all-terrain tires, so Subaru basically figured it would offer a version like that from the factory, complete with unique styling that remains intact for 2023 even though the rest of the Outback line gets a facelift. Last year, Subaru double-downed on the Outback’s outdoorsy popularity by introducing the even more rugged Outback Wilderness. Seeing one without some sort of accessory rack on top is rare, while the bumper or windows will inevitably be festooned in stickers for national parks or outdoor brands. There’s a reason it’s so darn popular in the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, Colorado and Alaska. In other words, the Outback is a great choice for those who actually intend to take their outdoor adventure vehicle on adventures outdoors. It actually outdoes the space, versatility and ground clearance of most similarly priced crossover SUVs, while boasting a notable wagon-specific advantage in a lower roof that makes it easier to load things (and yourself) up onto the lid. The Outback then goes further than simply checking the normal boxes. It also has an undeniable rugged look and vibe. The 2023 Subaru Outback checks off all the boxes many people buy an SUV for: ample space, cargo-carrying versatility, standard all-wheel drive and extra ground clearance. It may seem contradictory, but one of the most capable SUVs you can buy is actually a wagon. I also heard about fliuidampr.Pros: More passenger and cargo space than comparably priced SUVs big-time ground clearance low roof with versatile rails fuel efficient Cons: Imprecise steering odd power delivery Wilderness’ on-road handling and fuel economy Should I just put the stock pullies back on? I am kind of concerned if it is going to change any harmonics of engine and eventually fail something. Perrin does mention that their pulley is not under-driven and is made for 2022 outback. I am very happy with these mods, however, I feel vibrations/humming/resonance on the gas pedal/in the cabin when idling (might be coz of the lightweight pulley). Good throttle response from the stop, smooth delivery 0 - 40 mph (not much slack like the stock, more driveable) and I am constantly almost getting 21 - 22 mpg in city This must be coz of the lightweight pullies. It drives great now, handling well (the tires are giving away though).

As a result, I am not aware of any kits that are problem free in terms of ride quality and alignment (adding further cost). Lowering on the Gen 6 is not nearly as popular as lifting. Cheaper wheels generally means heavier wheels (mpg/handling hit). ![]() Bigger wheels means lower profile tires which generally means more expensive and more likely to suffer road related damage to wheels and tires. If your goal is to put bigger wheels on, lower the car, and keep things on a budget (interpreted as low cost) then my advice is to not do any of those things. If you mean that you are trying to figure out a budget, then my comments still apply but I might write them differently with that interpretation of budget. ![]() Also I am interpreting your comments on budget as meaning that you want to keep things low cost. I am providing my thoughts based on your goals. Note: I am not telling you to not lower your vehicle.
