Default Do AP 6 Pot Calipers and 355mm Discs fit under 17" OZ Prodrive Wheels?

I have a set of 330mm AP 6 pots under my 17" OZ Prodrive Alloys at the minute and wondering does the 355mm setup fit?

Quick response would be great here guys.

Thanks,
Carle.

Also the 330mm caliper is a better design than the 355mm one. If you need more stop then get some better pads (Pagid Blue). I deliberately went for the 330mm set on my 03STi so I colud use both 17 and 18 wheels on and off track. Also the 330mm set up is lighter so less unsprung weight.

Tempted but I have gold Brembos on the back with Pagid Blue pads and the car stops pretty good. In fact my track instructor tells me off for braking to hard/late so I suppose I have more stop than I need.
