Hey amigos.

Quick question, Tracking down some temp wheels for the outback while I re-do my rotas.

Will the wheels below clear brembos? If not, With spacers? would they even clear the rear caliper?

Cheers, Cameron.

Pretty sure they won't, Cam.

I believe you need certain STi rims.

Other members will confirm this...

I have 20mm bolt on spacers laying around if it's a bee's dick or 10 from fitting too.

I'll have the wheels Tuesday night, So if they don't fit...Up for sale they go

I dont like those rims....

They dont even come close to clearing Brembo's, Ive tried.

I estimated a 25mm spacer at the time, but 20mm "may" clear. I also know someone who mentioned to me today they wanted a set of these if they dont work out.

I really like them as well. Awesome wheels.

I'll buy them off you depending on the sale price if you decide to sell 'em Cam..

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

Waaaaaaay too common as everyone puts them on their non spec B Gen4's.

I prefer the 04-06 3.0RB 18's.

Cam if the rears fit on & you want to rip off the front Brembys, I have some stock front callipers/discs sitting in the shed you can borrow for as long as you need.

Just another option for you
