the rear disc has a "drum" built into it which is utilized for a set for h/brake shoes.....................lots of cars have this sort of set-up, Vauxhall, Mitsubishi, etc...........

are you talking offset or wheel clearance..................??

for the BREMBO's the STi wheels are basically the same offset but with a totally different inner casting to cope with the caliper dimensions

offset will have no bearing on this if the casting is restrictive
