Default Handbrake shoes

Hi,

Just upgraded my rear wrx calipers to brembos. Am I right in thinking that I need to upgrade my handbrake shoes because of the change to sti discs ? Or can I use oem handbrake wrx shoes because the sti discs fit over my hubs anyway ?.

Cheers

You don't need to change them , they are the same size, only the earlier cars need changing
