205/70/15 - sw 143.5 215/65/17- side wall 139.75 (closest to ur original specs) 215/50/17-sw107.5 First, what Tidgy said, second, you'll lower car stands with 72 mm ((143.5 -107.5) x 2) with larger gaps between wheels and car body and reduce ur car ability to absorb road bumps/ cracks/ potholes. With this being said, I see no other major problems.

Still have a set (all 4 corners 2007 Forester JDM) original suspension with 30k miles on them. If interested you can have it and pay what you think worth.

If new front calipers, new brake fluid and all corners air bleed(in my opinion). If front calipers so corroded rear calipers need a detailed service ...at least. New brake pads would change braking dynamics. New brake rotors would change braking dynamics. New pads and/or rotors does not mean better breaking (I've leaned it the hard/expensive way) High quality parts would fix some of the problems. One more thing to try is going from a 1" master to 1 1/4". My two cents.
If uk registered has to have rear fog working lights only one side (left side) Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I can vouch for Tim too. He did all of the above on my new imported jdm forester few years ago. Great work.
You're right, but u can manually shift an 4eat (buttons on the steering wheel to be used in manual mode, similar to padels)
Not sure yet if to let it go, but I've got an jdm(wrx), cross sports, '07, EJ205, 4eat (sport), 50k/ish, first UK owner. Not cheap. If you're interested let me know.
Look for a JDM forester ( cross sports), they usually come with a body kit and a 2.0T
What Judd said. 2007 Cross Sport JDM with 4EAT transmission, transmission oil "refreshed " as through regular procedure you can only drain about 4 ltr. My concern would be that if contaminated with 75w80 (100% sure it's diff oil) a full drain would be necessary. I did it myself with this:
Light bulb...maybe?
...and unfortunately there are two of them, that usually should get changed together.
There is an easy and guaranteed fix. Change head gasket.
In some applications a sensor for oil level cuts out fuel.
