Just has some larger brakes fitted. What is the minimum diameter wheel I can fit over standard Subaru 4 Pot brakes?

Thanks

i think its 16s

Yep, 16's, but be aware that there are two types of standard Subaru wheels in 16, and they don't both fit, also, even some 17's don't fit over the 4 pots, some of the early Speedline ones don't fit!!

Thanks for that. Looks like the 16"'s I have are obvioulsy the ones that don't fit :(

dont forget the size of the disc matters too!!!

I think that MY99 5 spokes or MY00 six spokes will fit. Earlier 5 spokes or early 7 spoke speedline 17s don't fit.

There's some info. on AP's website. They provide a template that can be built to check clearance and give an example of a wheel that will fit their 4pot kit. The AP disks are 304mm which ISTR is bigger than scooby 4pots....

mcfurtis m8,ive got standard 16's on a my98 with 6-pots and 310mm disc's...theres about 5mm clearance from the calipers to the inside of the wheel,so if you have the same wheels then you shouldn't have a prob.
