Is the wheel hitting the caliper? If so buy a few spacers to decrease the offset and clear the brakes. But doing this you may have to fit longer studs to make sure your wheel is securely fitted.

The only ways I can see are 5mm spacers (and longer studs), different wheels or different brakes. (You could have my old 2 pots 
) I believe there are some 4 pots that fit behind them, but I don't remember the name.

I had the same wheels fitted to my MY98 with 2 pots,as i wanted to fit 4 pots (gone with the Brembo group buy now) I ended up changing the wheels for STi 7 wheels.
As said before you can fit spacers 5mm I think will do but you will probably need longer studs.

I don't understand why they should not fit.
I have still 5mm clearance between caliper and wheel and those are original speedlines and original 4pot brake son a MY2000.
Maybe it's a very little different wheeltype or so...

Wally,
there are two slightly different designs for these wheels, the early ones have flat spokes, they don't go over four pots, the later ones have slightly curved spokes, they do fit over the four pots.

That was it Ron, on the Scooby they were called Speedline 'Supertourismo' and Supertourismo 2' on later versions to clear the 4 pot calipers. Aftermarket they got called 'Chrono'

There are 3 types of wheel that look the simlar, the original Speedline Supertarismo (sp?) that 4 pots WONT fit behind ,the RB5 wheels that have a sholder on the outer edge of the spoke that 4 pots will fit behind and the Speedline Cronos (i think thats waht its called 
) that 4 pots will fit behind. I think Creepy has the later wheel, these went fitted as standard to Subaru's (standard including ProDrive) but were fitted by some Scooby dealers to Imprezas as an after market wheel.
It looks like a Supertarismo which was made for Prodrive by Speedline but isnt...its still made be Speedline but has a different offset.
Confused ??

AFAIK, there were several versions of the Speedlibe "Chrono"
The Prodrive version for the Impreza started out as ET55 offset (I had a set), there was an anthracite version for the Forester with an ET48 offset. These were both called the "Supertourismo"
The Forester set fits the Impreza, and apparently clears the 4 pots, although I've not actually seen this.
