I am looking into finding some 4pot calipers like the Wilwood's to fit behind my 14in rims, I'm looking to keep a stealthy profile is the reason. Besides, I would only be interested in 15s or at the MAX 16s, but then, my stealthiness goes away.

Whadya think?

I don't think they will fit behind 14inch rims. You might need 17 maybe 16".

You'll need at least a 16" rim to clear the new slim design 4pot brakes from RacingBrake. Fits under the OEM Legacy GT (97-04), and WRX (02-05) rims.

The Subaru 4pot brakes can fit under 16" rims, but not the rims mentioned above. The Subaru 4pots fit under OEM Impreza RS rims (98-01), almost all JDM Subaru rims, and recently discovered by yours truely, the 2005 Legacy GT Turbo 5 spoke rim.

Here are some very limited examples of 15" rims that'll clear. Be forewarned....these aren't cheap.

Speedline 15x6 et50 2118

The new SSR’s that are going to be around $280 a wheel:
