Default 4 pots on v1 sti

I have a 94 wrx sti with standard 16inch wheels, early type, will these wheels clear some Subaru 4 pots as it looks quite tight with the 2 pots. Cheers. Ben

I've got a v2 '95 sti with the gold 16"s the oem callipers are 4pot, I guess it depends what year you're taking the 4 subaru 4 pots from.

the 4 pots are from a classic its just i wasnt sure if there was a difference in offsets between the different types of 16inch wheel. i dont want to fit the calipers to find they hit against the wheel so while i get refurbing them i thought ill try do some digging. cheers.

early 16" wheels definately dont fit with 4pots as they weren't designed to clear them........

If you're wanting to stay with OEM 16's this sort clear 4 pots, and are quite nice IMO. Not my advert, just had a quick look on Ebay.
