Red face What wheel size??

HI
I have a my 96 classic STI.
I have now got some 330mm discs and new 4 pot calipers.
Before i can fit them i need some bigger wheels.

Will a 17inch wheel fit over this sise brakes
or does it need to be 18.
Also will 18 hit the wheel arches??

Similar answer to the above required.........

I'm running 330mm Prodrive Alcon front brakes with 18" wheels on a MY99, I'm wanting to down size to 17's (better on track I believe) will I be ok with the 330mm brakes on 17's or are there only specific wheels that will fit?

330 should fit under 17s, but you need to check the calipers clear the inside of the spokes.
