Hi i have an 04 sti and was looking through your fitment guide and says the 17X8 torque's will fit the 04 sti but the 17X7.5 wouldn't. I have the stock sti tires and i wanna use those tires. Would putting the stock sti tires on the 17X8 be ok considering the 05 sti had 17X8 wheels with the same size tires?

225/45/17 with work fine on the 8" wide rim.

The reason the 7.5" torques do not work is b/c they do not clear the brakes, the 17x8's do though.
