Yeah the old ones that say subaru on the side. Are they worth the upgrade? do they fit with the stock wrx wheels?
I thought the 4-pots fit in the 98-01 RS rims but not the 16" WRX rims, as the RS rims were designed around that brake. Eric
Eric is correct the subi 4 pot will only work on the RS wheel. So if you have a WRX be careful with that. I wonder if they fit with the 05 wheel? Matt
Do they not fit because of diameter clearance or spoke? if it's spoke would they fit with a small spacer? or does any one have 98-01 RS wheels for sale?
They do not fit due to spoke design. I am not sure if spacers will do it. However, I have used a wheel from Discount Tire called a Rage Breaker on my rally car. I used a 16X7 with a 40MM offset. There is also a 47MM offset if you want to stay closer to the stock 53MM figure. Here is a link to the 40MM wheel. http://www.discounttire.com/dtc/findWheelDetail.do?rc=MNMINT&pc=75759 And here is a link to the 47MM wheel. http://www.discounttire.com/dtc/findWheelDetail.do?rc=MNMINT&pc=75760 Best of all, they are 89.00 each new. Also, they have lowered the price on there 17X7 that fit the STI to 99.00 each
FWIW, I had Subaru 4-pot brakes (WRX calipers of course) for the front on my old GC Impreza w/ the Subaru MY00-01 RS wheels. No issues at all with them or the fitment and the wheels don't look bad at all.
