Alloy wheels that clear AP racing cp4070 6 pot brake calipers
I have the old 19" inovit black mirror alloy wheels that clear my AP racing 6 pot brake calipers. They have stopped making them now and I was wondering if any of you guys knew of alternative alloy wheels that would clear them? I have tried some alloy wheel specialists and but they have nothing that would clear the caliper and some are just useless. Any advice out in the Subaru community would be helpful. Thanks

Cheers mate. What company would you suggest? I was having nightmares thinking that I would have to change all the calipers to have new alloys fitted. The pot holes have made 3 cracks in one of the alloys butI I am having it repaired by a professional aluminium welding firm. I dont know if thats just temporary removing the problem? The thing is before I found out there was cracks in the alloy I thought the rotas were causing the problem because when I hit a concrete surface the steering wheel was just vibrating violently. I took the car to a so called public tyre centre who told me there was a crack in the alloy and managed to blow the tyre up in the process. (Idiots) I jusr want a decent set of alloy wheels that will give the clearance from the brake AP racing 7040 brake calipers which they dont make any more. Personally I would prefer18" alloys as I have read that the 19" alloys are more trouble than they are worth. :-(

Is it a newage or classic?
5x100 or 5x114 pcd?
Have a look on here in the wheels for sale section or put up a wanted ad.
Would save you a lot of money buying used.
The rota force drifts are around £800 new without tyres from rota shop.
