Default STI Brembo's on classic

Would these fit under a pair of 17" OZ Superlegare?

Thanks in advance

Rasmus

Is it simply a question of getting a pair of spacers or it there more to it?

Its to do with the way the spokes are formed out, even though the STi and WRX (new age) have the same offset the spokes are further out on the STi alloys to compensate for the calipers.
So basically the STI alloys fit a WRX but not the other way round though they are the same offset.

A set of New age STi wheels would be ideal but they fit 225 size tyres to these......
There probably is someone who has fitted Brembo's to their classic, but AFAIK ive not heard on here
Your other option is to go for a different type of caliper, i know Godspeed do a smaller Brembo 4 pot caliper, but they dont fit 330mm brakes under them but they may also do an AP caliper that does (4pot) but not sure on how much it is...

I think the website is something like www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk ??

Thumbs up

Last time I looked , Ian was doing a 335mm (?????) disc that fits under 18's, I think, and a 320 that fits under 17's.

I have the one that fits under OE WRX 17" wheels, and have been more than happy.

You will find that the Godspeed Brembo 335mm kit will fit under 17's , there's quite a few on here with them fitted
