    impreza15.jpg outback16.jpg I have a set of Outback rims for sale.
    These are the stock 16" gold/silvers, from 2003.
    They do have some minor corrosion and blemishes, but do not have any cracks or bends.
    asking $100 obo

    next set is off of a 1995 Impreza LX
    These are 15", and like the other set do have some minor corrosion and blemishes, but do not have any cracks or bends. (one does have some curb rash)
    asking $75 obo

    (both sets are dirty but all the center caps are there)

    willing to meet anywhere in the 494/694 loop :)

    Not without modification. I little work with a grinder and I made 15s fit over the stock brakes on our '03 Outback (same as '03-'05 WRX, larger piston bore than '02 WRX).

    Grind down the caliper?

    In my research i saw a guy state that you can run RS brackets and a smaller rotor with the WRX calipers. Does that sound possible/logical to you Matt?

    Yes and yes. WRXs use 290mm rotors, if you swap to the 276s, it'll fit for sure. It's not uncommon for budget rally teams (gravel tires are for 15" wheels, but 15" wheels that clear the WRX brakes are expensive).

    Pads changed in 2003. So if you want to keep using the pads from your '02, get caliper brackets from a '96-'02 car with the 276s.
