AMSoil signature series. Best stuff you can get!
Pros: best stuff
Vehicle:

I have them on my 2016 forester 2.5. I live in the middle of Indiana so for half of the year it rains somewhat regularly. Personally, I think the tire is great. I have made turns too quickly while the roads were wet and didn't slide around at all. Accelerating and braking, i consider the traction to be very good in all conditions.
Pros: great traction, safe commute
Cons: lower mileage in winter
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
My 2017 is a bone stock daily driver and I have no plans to do any major upgrades or track my car. That being said, I've never had an issue with duralast gold pads and rotors from autozone. Reasonably priced and the pads have a lifetime warranty, meaning you buy them once and can trade the used ones back in for a new set at any time, no questions asked. The rotors have a 3 year warranty and even though mine are only showing some very minor wear, I'm going to take advantage of the warranty and swap them out for a new set in the next few months befor my 3 years is up.
Pros: reasonably priced, lifetime warranty
Cons: minor wear

I had the steering rack in my 2016 STI replaced at an independent Subaru shop and it was $730 for an OEM rack and $525 in labor not including a power steering flush and alignment.

I haven’t heard of fake brake pads but be careful. The main reason I’m commenting is HP+ pads might be good for autox but if you have experience on track, I’d avoid. Granted, my experience using them was on a 2015 WRX but you can overheat the pads pretty quickly on a heavy braking circuit.
Cons: overheat quickly

I had this problem with my 2019 Forester in stop and go traffic on the Dallas North Tollway. I was able to force the car into park and shut it off and back on manually, and this happened about a half dozen more times before my dealer finally admitted that there was a class action on those batteries. I’ve since had it replaced two additional times under a labor warranty. Like I guess it’s fine because it’s free, but very annoying that I bought a Subaru for reliability and I’m in the shop at least every 9 months for a new battery.
Pros: replaced under warranty
Cons: repeated failures, annoying, frequent replacements

The auto start/stop failed to start the car today while waiting in a left hand turn lane at a red light in traffic. Potentially dangerous situation for anyone. Fortunately the person behind me got out of his car and pushed my car across two traffic lanes to the right curb. The Subaru dealer told me last week when I had the 42k mile maintenance done that the battery was fine based on a battery test. I had specifically asked for the battery to be checked because the starts sounded weak. Now I’m back at the dealer after the failure incident and the diagnoses is a bad battery. It is not safe to have the car automatically shut down on the road when the battery does not have the power to auto start.
Cons: failed to start, weak starts, bad battery
