[BP5GT]

Do version 7 STi front Brembos fit with these wheels ok?

[hamish_023]

[BP5GT]

[tangcla]

[BP5GT]

Damn.

I like my Spec B wheels but like Brembos.


Nice one word answers

you can fit your brembos if you use spacers on the wheels.

[BP5GT]

Hmm ok I wonder how big a spacer? Would need certifying if using spacers.













Spare wheel clears them.

[hamish_023]

that's not a normal spacer that's a sti spacer though?

it might be a usdm space saver but it is still a sti sapce saver and yes with spacers they will fit. you need to do some measuring

[tangcla]

Look atthe curves on the space saver - there is a lot of clearance on them, that's why those STi space savers are in such high demand.

At a guess you'd need at least 12mm spacers to clear the brake caliperes, possibly 15mm.

are these the same wheel?



if so they can fit, i can ask the guy i know that has them.

[hamish_023]

In aus they are called cs9 rims. From the 06 wrx club spec 9. Which only have Subaru 4 pot brakes. In the states they were sold as specb liberty rims aswell. If you have a picture of the front brembos on they have got spacers on. Rears might fit without them

[tangcla]

The stock wheels will clear rear Brembo calipers.

Yes can you please ask?

I paid about $1700 for this set of wheels and tyres in Japan just to have them over aftermarket wheels. (thats how much I like them).
