Default 4 pot clearance issue

Hi all just went to fit the 4 pots that came with my car a 95 WRX import. Got the calliper all bolted in but can't get the wheel on it. Wheels are 17s. Do i need any special spacers? Thought it was a direct bolt on replacement. Any help appreciated.

No, what make and style, I know 16s that clear 4 pots, so a little surprised if a 17 doesnt, thats why I asked what wheels they are.

Pretty sure they're leggy N/A wheels, must be the spoke design causing issues.

Could try some spacers but i'd buy some newage wrx wheels. Always seems to be some going very cheap on ebay.

ok i'll have a look thanks for that. Yeah the spokes hit before you can get them anywhere near on. Probably why the previous owner never fitted them.
