So I Upgraded to 4Pots.. 
Ready to go up to the snow and i was going to swap my Snow Tyres on... problem..... my 16in Snowflakes dont cover 4Pots.. 

 

Need some info guys.. 

What 16in Subaru Wheels fit 4Pots?

 

I cant go larger than 16 due to clearance issues when i put chains on with 17's (well atleast at 225/45/17)

I could go 215/45/17 but i prefer to have some spare 16's as they are cheaper and also more comfortable on the longer trips

Also I already have tyres in 205/50/16

 

So..

 

WRX 16's

What else?

 

Also if anyone reading this has any suitable wheels going cheap Let me know.. I'm in need urgently :|

I know CS9's will fit :P

Thanks Chris,

I Don't know if those would fit.. i have the 4 pots with raised lettering (will be machining them flat one day though)

 

but for now i just picked up some Rex16's in Blaaaaaack for $200

 

Spacers would work but I would prefer to get wheels that fit and i can slap some Track rubber on them.

Wouldn't be too keen to Track the car with Spacers.. 

My last track day there was an evo7 with Brembo's.. maybe 5mm of clearance.. between the spokes and the face of the calliper
end of the day.. the callipers had hit the Spokes and shredded them to shit.
seeing all the parts flex enough to do that.. i wouldn't trust spacers

 

Hopefully this thread is usefull for anyone else wandering what wheels clear 4Pots

You are required to carry them at all times when staying within the boundries of Alpine area.

Also. Awd does not mean you are invincible to ice.
In the snow you are fine but hit ice and you'll be wishing you had chains.
