Default 15" Rims

Hello all,

Does anyone know if 15" rims will fit over the brakes on my 2001 WRX wagon?
Trying to by 17" winter tyres is proving difficult and I have a pile of 15" gravel / M&S tyres in my garage that would be perfect.

Cheers.

if you have the std SUBARU 4pot caliper fitted then you effectively need a competition style grpN wheel to work..............no std factory wheel has the brake clearance
