Default Just been scamed on ebay

brought some brembos on flebay advert said :

`The calipers will fit any turbo impreza 1993-2001, however, some wheels may not provide enough clearance, I have had many questions asking if specific wheels will fit over the calipers..... sorry but I am not able to provide this information`.

Dont fit, calliper hole centers are 158mm scooby ones are 154mm, Godspeed says they are off evo.
So just be carefull on ebay, £400 lighter with some usless calipers *******

Just report him to paypal (if you payed by paypal) as not being as discribed should get your money back

He's not lying they will fit a impreza but how much money you would have to spend to make them fit???

I was watching a full set the other day which were red, thought the same, red for evo's and gold for subaru's, Also thought the disc's for evo's were thinner ie: 24mm instead of 28mm for subaru.
