It would be very rare for a 15' rim to fit over 4 pots, 16's are required!!

Im sorry but you will find all grpN spec scoobys have allways ran 15" wheels in the forest as that is what is homologated for them even the new version 8/9. You just have to spend ££££ on new speedlines or find any old sets which turn up now and again!!!!!!

I'd bet that they won't fit, yes I know that some rally cars run 15's, but they use competition wheels......!!

Sorry, deleted photo by mistake, it should be back now!
Speedline corse and compomotive 15" fit but it was just a question as it would save a lot of £££££££ compared to new rims!

Those cam on pre ver4 STi cars that did not come with 4pots. They will not fit without spacers (not sure what size but I assume in excess of 5 mm).

I run raceline RL-7 15" rims with my 4pots - plenty of room!
