who is running 17" 225s on a standard ? (pics)

So I decided to see how my 17's that I have left over from my WRX look on the bug:




I think it looks pretty bad-ass, but it will give me even less steering

The back *barely* misses the bolt on the springplate, and this is with the spacers that I use for my 15s...

More pics here: http://flickr.com/photos/online2006/...7594463116693/

The backspacing on the 15s is 5", the 17s 6"...

It also means I need to re-drill my drums and rotors as this is a 5 bolt rim.

Anybody else running 225s on a standard ? How did you work it out ?

Rob.
