will wheels/tires from a '90 Legacy work for my '97 Outback wagon? the tires are 185/70 R 14 - my son has my outback in Idaho at college right now so I cannot go look to see what size is on it now

No, I don't think they will fit. 97 OBW has 205X70X15 size tires on 15 inch wheels. I seriously doubt that the smaller 14 inch wheels will fit over the brake rotors.

 

Meant calipers...........not rotors, in above answer.

used wrong word

Won't fit. 14's won't fit over the calipers.

 

GD

d@mn! It's 4 studded tires on wheels with very little use for $150!

+1 won't clear the brake rotors. you can swap the front rotors and calipers from the 90 as well, then it will work.

LOL - no thanks!

They will fit on a '97 OBS.... I know because I'm running 185/75/R14 snow tires on my OBS. However, like he said, I think the OBW has bigger calipers and needs 15" rims.
