Will P1 wheels fitted with 215/40/17 fitted to standard MY99 foul the rear arches?

I know this topic has been done to death before but I notice that P1 wheels are fitted with 205/45/17 and wonder whether there will be clearance issues with the larger tyre

Cheers

Cool

Nope, if the P1 wheel is at stock Subaru Impreza ET - and I believe it is (around 52 mm, this should be marked on the wheels) you're set. I've got 215/40x17 F1's on 17x7 ET48, had to remove the rubber protective strip on the rear arches - other than that no problems.
