Details
Likely yes on non-Brembo cars. The 2002-04 WRX wheel (16x6.5 +53; spec lists give the 2005 wheel as +55) matches the ZN6's 5x100 / 56.1 mm hub, and owners run similar 16-inch Subaru wheels (16x6.5 +48) for winter with no caliper contact. Nobody reported this exact +53 wheel. It will not clear Performance Package Brembos. Our arithmetic: 205/55R16 is about 1% taller than 215/45R17.
