Scooby 1998S

Hi Guys,

I've seen a lot about wheel sizes and offsets, but I'm not sure whether these standard wheels will fit over 4 pots (offset not mentioned in the ad). These are for a rally car, that currently runs 15" speedlines, to give us a cheap wheel for snow tyres.

Any help appreciated.

they fit over the std SUBARU 4pots - they will not fit with the OE STi Brembo caliper.........

not sure what set-up you have currently??

As Alyn says, stock 4 pots but not brembos

These 16" will not clear Brembos and neither will newage 17" WRX wheels. Newage 17" STI wheels will as those are the ones that came with Brembos from the factory.

Thanks all.
I've got standard 4 pots so these should be ok.
Off to ebay to get a deal.

Hey,

Sorry for hijacking this thread but I have a question and I didn't want to start new one.

Will my brakes:



fit under my wheels:



without any spacers or extra work?

Thanks

That's a 4 pot caliper so yes but what discs are they as they look as if they have been drilled for classic PCD ? Drop the tape measure on them and confirm the diameter of the discs for us please.

Will do when I get back home. I have been told they have been taken off a classic WRX that was broken for parts and calipers and disks came as a set...

Although those calipers look a bit different then most of subaru 4 pots I have seen. They usually have 'subaru' writing and two stripes sort of cast/embossed in metal. Mine have got a flat smooth front and sort of decal or print on them...

edit:

the disks are about 293mm diameter

Newage 4 pots don't have Subaru in the casting.

Yes they do micky, my 2005 looked the same with Subaru embedded on them and not a sticker

They could be the copy ones that Godspeed and the likes sell.

Well the ones on mine don't have it in the casting, they are from a Hawkeye though.

The one's Ian sells have WRX PRO in the casting, not Subaru.

some of the grpN cars used a 4pot caliper for "gravel" with 15" wheels and hence dual PCD on the discs supplied...........

Not sure on the hawks, they may have changed design a bit. But the prior ones have it embedded on calipers.

Are the wrx pro a sticker?

stockcar

later ones are definately not cast logo's............

It was around 2005/6 that they changed the caliper design from cast logo's to stickers , apart from that the calipers are identical , both use the 294mm discs and same pads.

The WRX pro copy calipers we sell have the logo cast into the caliper body the same as the early Subaru calipers

Cheers Ian

One more question considering fitting 4 pots on my sport. Will my brake lines that are connected to my single pots now fit 4 pot or do I need to get different brake lines?

Just want to make sure I have everything BEFORE I get to do it so I don't do it twice and kick something with fury on the way there

stockcar

lines will work the same............

Or you could put braided lines on: Alyn will sell you some, worthwhile upgrade.

Oh that's great!

I was thinking about that but probably would have to leave it for later...
