Wheel fitment question


Recommended Posts

Question: do all 4x140 Subie wheels fit the 90s Loyales? I was chatting with a fellow a while back about older gen DL/GL wheels not fitting newer Loyales due to brake clearance, etc. Being I have zero experience here, I thought I’d ask the experts. 

Ive got a lead on a sweet set of 13” “H” style wheels (from and ‘85 I believe.)

Any known issues fitting these on my ‘90 Loyale Wagon? Also, anyone know where to score 2 matching center caps?

The fitment issue is with the white 8-spoke steel wheels.  The early ones with curved spokes contact the brakes on an EA82 (which has straight spokes).  I've never seen or heard of alloy wheels having this issue, so the H-style wheels should fit.
