Default 00-05 sti alloys on my classic

Hi there guys im after doing a brembo sti brake upgrade, problem is i love my speedline st2's and they won t fit under. So after a good look around i quite fancy the 00-05 sti alloys, my speedines are 215 wideand the sti alloys are 225 wide.
The question is will these rub my arches?
Also what other wheel options do i have?

Cheers for all your help, joe

The sti rims are 7.5" wide, you want the version 7/8 sp the pcd is 5 x 100.

They bolt on fine with 215/40/17 tyres

Or hubcentric spacers, I'd not fit them to a car that's subject to "abuse", but fine for road use, imho.
