‘24 Sport, but needed to swap some things to match my “needs”.
-2” Ironman lift
-DX-4 X-trail 16” bronze wheels, 15mm offset
-Toyo Open Country AT3 225/70r16
-OEM receiver hitch
-Rally Innovations light bar
-Baja Designs XL-R sport driving lights
-Smart Liner floor mats
-console divider from amazon
-Kuat Piston Pro bike rack
-way old Yakima roof rack
-mudflaps and speakers on the way
-more vinyl to cover up the gold accents (sorry, doesn’t match the wheels!)
-Stealie plate from my last Subaru
Still came out cheaper than a stock Wilderness with the changes and adds I wanted to make to this one.
Thanks again to everyone here who shared what they did to their Crosstreks!
Nice! I bought the magnetite grey. They had an alpine green on the lot but with the option package I didn't want. Now everytime I see an apline green I am filled with envy😭
I can’t find the original post but someone else here posted that they had confirmed that DX-4 X-trails worked in 16” and so I went with those and they do indeed fit with Toyo 225/70r16 OC3’s. The rear scrubbed w stock suspension under full compression but that’s where the lift comes in!
I like it better than the wilderness, not knocking the wilderness, but your build is nicer looking.
Definitely need the speaker/amp upgrade but it should sound as good/better than the Hk for about $1k
I knew I was going to have to swap wheels on a wilderness, and I still wanted more clearance, so that was going to get real expensive. And yes, I have an open cart with Crutchfield for some speakers and hardware!
This is the US Sport that comes with the gold stripe on the sides and gold highlights on the corners. I’ve wrapped the corners but haven’t finished the doors yet. They look good but don’t match my wheels, and you know, it’s gotta match!
Yup! Saw through it with some fishing line, pick the extra tick pieces of the adhesive off, and then used a cheap lil plastic scraper I got from Walmart, and some goo gone, and just scraped it away. Probably have some small superficial scratches in the clear coat, but worked great!
Ha! Well, I slapped the wheels and tires on the day after I picked up the car, then lifted it a week and a half later…. I can tell you the numbers aren’t what’s printed on the window sticker! Right now with a moderately hilly commute with moderate traffic I’m at 24.5ish
Interesting—didn’t think about that. But I’ve driven about 400 miles since install and there have been no hiccups or differences from the first week of driving. ‘24 eyesight seems to be more refined than my wife’s ‘19, so I’m just impressed as hell with what it does, having been around when the internet started and all.
Total price? I need to gauge how much food I need to take away from my children to do this.
Cheaper than a Wilderness, but the kids’ll slim down a bit!
Just put them to work in the mine for a little bit.
Platinum mine’s better than a gold mine.
Nice. Beast mode activated. It’s funny how much that color changes based on lighting.

I bought the same wheels! In matte black, but they really do look great. Excited to share soon

I’m in the same boat as you.
Would you say that you’re… green… with envy?
Looks nice! What tires and rims did you put on?

Beefy!
Drop the stats! lift, wheels, tires, accessories?
Guess I should’ve done that! I’ll put it up
Please do!
I dig the stealie.
The lifts are nice but i know a guy that owns a Subaru Mod shop and he says he'd never put one on his own subie because it adds a lot wear and tear
Yo what state you live in I’ll buy your factory rims lmao
Following bc same, and OC I hope were in different states
Ha! Southeast US
That looks frickin fantastic, man. Great job.
Thanks!

Did it come with the gold stripe on the bottom of the doors? I have a '21 Outdoor model (Sport in USA) in Dark Blue. Looking to add some color.

So it's a decal at the door bottoms. Gotta get my hands on it. I think matches the trim inside as well.
Is that a 1UP I see?
Never mind. Just saw your comment on the parts list. Still cheers and sick mods. Looks good!
I live down a dirt road and I didn’t think the exposed cams of the OneUp would last long-term. This Kuat rocks!
Badass!
Looks sharp!
Looks great. All you gotta do now is debadge those giant SPORT emblems
Yeah they don’t match anything, do they! Looks like you just pulled yours off?

Nice. The stock wheels are so ugly
That looks fantastic! Did you track your MPG change before/after?

Honestly that's not bad at all, all things considered. Sweet rig!
Thanks!
Looks badass and wanna do the same or similar! But does modified lifting mess up eyesight?
