Any one done this?
What needs swapping or is it just the disc and caliper?

NO well...........
I've got an STi 7 and the P1 wheels (18's) won't fit over the Brembo's. The offset is about an inch out. So the 17's will be the same offset.
Not sure if your putting the brakes on a P1 they will fit ??
Haven't tried that but the wheel hub must be different ?

No.

The issue isn't primarily offset, it's wheel spoke *shape* to clear the Brembo calipers.

The STi calipers are big and won't go under any of the other OEM/Prodrive wheels, which is why Prodrive/SUK/OZ recast the P-WRC1 (P1) wheel to fit the STi7 specifically with ET46 offset (and more curved spokes), and had a new 7 spoke (P-FF7) made to fit the STi too.

The hubs are unchanged.....

BTW, what are you trying to do - put the STi Brembos on an earlier car?
