Default Will 17" Speedline Cronos fit an STI???

I'm supposed to buying sum 17" speedline cronos of someone 2nd hand, will these fit on a classic (1997 WRX STI), ie are there any brake clearance issues. The lad who's selling me them had an uprated brake kit on his old classic and they fitted over these OK.
Its a bit(v.long) of a drive to pick them up if they don't fit.

Not necessarily

They won't fit over Subaru 4 pots but Pete Croney used to do a brake kit that effectively had a spacer in the disc bell so they would clear. Maybe that's the uprated kit they are fitted with now.
