Are the rpm suppose to be on the high side. I'm doing about 60mph and the

I have a 2000 GT Wagon. The previous owner replaced the head gasket in
2005. I guess only the left head gasket was replaced. Since one side

I am looking to put some new wheels on my 2001 forester.  How can I tell

It's been in the 20's for quite a while in the NE. On Sunday mornings, I
