SJ bigger brakes, yes, ea82 with slight mods. wrx brakes, no, not with that lug pattern. But, you could convert to 5 lug and find a similar wheel with 5x100 lugs, and 17" for 4 pot brakes, or 15" for 2 pot brakes.

October 24, 201114 yr Redrill the hubs. I believe loyal 2.7 turbo did that. He did. To 4X114.3 or something. I had a set of those, those are Enkei 92s if I recall... Mine were green haha. You can get them EXACTLY like that in the 5X100 pattern...
October 24, 201114 yr ive been debating redrilling the hubs as well i have some american racing 14 inchers that are back up wheels for my datsun and they would look bad rump roast on my wagon
October 24, 201114 yr Do rear discs in the process... might as well... Re-drilling the brake hubs just seems pointless
October 24, 201114 yr Author You can get them EXACTLY like that in the 5X100 pattern... I dont exactly get why you said it like this? SJ

October 24, 201114 yr Author ive been debating redrilling the hubs as well i have some american racing 14 inchers that are back up wheels for my datsun and they would look bad rump roast on my wagon I'm thinking about just getting a whole other set of hubs to redrill that way I don't damage the originals and I can paint them and make them look good easier then taking all the original hubs off and doing all that. plus if you need to drive it you can and when your ready to swap its all in a few hours work.

October 24, 201114 yr I dont exactly get why you said it like this? SJ It seemed like you wanted those wheels... exactly those haha. So I was suggesting the 5 lug swap, get the 5X100, and then get them. Its good if you know someone to re-drill the hubs as it should be precision drilled, or if you can do it yourself (precision) but if you cant, or dont know someone who can, I think the 5 lug swap would be a better move.
