I have a set of original subaru wheels with a set of used Michelin slicks on them. The tyres were fitted and balanced about 2 weeks ago but haven't been used since.

The rims are the same as these with the odd bit of kerbing.

They just clear my AP 6 pots (only just).

Planned to use them as track wheels but don't think that's likely so could get rid of them.

Whereabouts are you?

Ok thanks for that Dutch Scooby Lover - wasn't sure if the Brembos were bigger than the APs

The Brembo 4 pot is a very bulky caliper, even the 330mm 8pot D2/Ksportfit under some wheels which don't even clear the Brembo's.
This,and the caliper mounting system are the 2 biggest drawbacks for me, so that is why I opted for a Stoptech set instead of the cheaper Brembo's.
