17" wheels off MY02 etc on a Classic
Will a set of wheels and tyres off a MY02 car with 215-45-R17 tyres fit a classic MY99 Turbo. I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times before, but do they fit and if not why not - what do they catch!?

Basically they fit, but some people have a small amount of trouble with them catching, but lots of people have them with the 45 profile tyres, the ideal size is 215/40 17, best to get that size when the 45's wear out!!

225's (from sti)are prone to catching, I've had no problems at all with the standard 215/45/17s from the new wrx as fitted to my classic, have since replaced the tyres with 215/40/17s and still no probs.
Hope this helps
