Any one tried out 17" wheels on stock RX8 Calipers? Any recommendations are greatly appreciated. Going lightweight>>>?

I'm pretty sure you can run a 17 with no problem, even with the sport package

Im thinking they should be ok, but I'd hate to make a costly mistake.

I just bought some 17s from Discount Tire. Guy said they'd pay to ship them back if they didn't fit so I'm figuring he knows what he's doing lol.
