Ive seen 17's fit in person, but what the owner had to do was shave down the calipers a lil....It was very close to rubbing...I dont know if I would recommend shaving down your calipers to fit wheels.

Bummer, I like those wheels and was looking at them seriously. I may just get my stock AP2 wheels powdercoated black.

The 17's definitely don't fit. It was established almost as soon as they came out, and that's why no one really posts about it anymore. We've been selling Rota wheels long before the D2 came out, and the data about the S2K brake interference was discovered within a week or two of the wheel being released.

On a side note- As an S2K owner, I find the D2 to be far too heavy for the car, and the offsets to be a little too aggressive (including the "S2K" spec 18's).
