unfortunately not, you will need 17" and a wheel design that accounts for the larger clearance required for the STi Brambo caliper

Godspeed use to do a brembo kit (305 or 308mm) with the calipers like those on the fiat coupe turbo/pug 406 3ltr coupe, had a similar setup on my first classic, damn that car really stopped quickly
a vast improvement over the standard 4 pots.

I wish they did, I've seen some lovely JDM, rally wheels that come up in 15's and 16's.
Best bet is NewAge STi wheels
