BIGBLUE1212 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I have a 97 legacy gt 2.5l and the 16 inch alluminum rims...the hoey comb style......i called napa to get a quote on rotors and pads and they only had 14inch and 15 inch rims in their system.....are the 15 inch rotors the ones you use for the 16 inch rims.....i used to have a van that had the same problem....and the 15inch rotos worked on the 16 inch rims......anyone know what the answer to my question is?

NoahDL88 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 pop off a wheel and measure your rotor, with that number you should be able to figure out what brake bits you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 you have the 10.7" discs that are on the 2.5RS, 91-94 turbo legacy, and 1st gen foresters. So, for 15" wheels. The brakes that actually require 16" wheels are the 11.3" discs on the later Legacy GTs, outback, and WRX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGBLUE1212 Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 11.3' brakes are for new model legacies?.....post 2001? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Only the GT limited sedan in 00-01 had them, and then all GTs after that. The 05+ GT has even bigger 12.3" discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sea#3 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 This might help (see attached) Looks like they are all the same for the 2.5's (97's) SEA#3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDW25gt Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I put OE Brembos rotors, Hawk HPS pads and Motul RBF 600 on my '99 LGT. Got all from Tirerack. 10.7" diameter is correct as Jamel says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
