General Wheel Question

Will all 17" alloy wheels fit over '05 STi brakes? I guess respond if you know of instances where 17" wheels have not fit over 04/05 STi calipers. I am buying a set and would like to know for sure before they are shipped to me. I am not concerned about offset, just if the ID of some alloy 17" wheels does not clear the calipers (since even the OEM rims are a tight fit imo).

Thanks in Advance for the Help,
Craig

Some fit and some don't. Also, since the 05 is 5x114 and the 04 is 5x100, you can't use the older rims. I think Rota has 1 model that will fit your front in 17".
