Default Will 4 Pots Fit Under These 16" Wheels

Hi,

I've been offered a set of 4 and 2 pots for my 93 WRX. It is currently on 16" wheels so before taking the plunge I thought I would tap into the huge knowledge on here (I was told flattery would get you anywhere ) and see if anyone knows if they will fit. The wheels are in the picture below.



If they do go under the wheels what do I need to get to make them fit? I have already seen a set of discs and pads for front and rear. Do I need new handbrake shoes or will my current ones fit? Anything else in particular I should know or look out for?

The 4 pots will fit straight on en perfect under these wheels, the rear 2 pots I haven't tried but I believe this wouldn't be a problem, is also plug and play. No need to buy adapters they all fit straight on it.

Has anyone else fit 4 pots with these wheels? Got any pictures to show the clearance and end result?

Yes the 4 pots will fit under these wheels , as will the 2001 onwards 2 pots , but the rears are NOT a straight fit as per Staaf's post , you do need a bracket kit , along with 2001 onwards WRX 290mm discs.

We can supply you grooved rear discs , kevlar pads and the fitting kit for £175 , if you have discs and pads we have the bracket kit on special offer at the mo for £25.

Cheers Ian

Ian's right, forgot that the 2pots also needed the adaptor bracket.

Hi Ian, thanks for the extra information. I have got some discs and pads lined up but I will need the fitting kit and that's a cracking price. How long is the offer on for mate? I've not picked up the callipers yet and I want to wait on ordering bits until I actually have the brakes.
