One thing that could cause a problem is that the 05 front brakes are larger so you may have some clearance issue's on the front. The rears should be fine as the brakes are the same size, just vented for the 05's.

I believe Bogart makes a 17" front runner to get around a bigger brake.
BUUUUTTTT,with a 3" wheel,do you think there is any problem? There is no part of the wheel that even comes close to the caliper if I remember correctly on my car.

Without taking the wheels off,I just went out in the garage and checked.I can put my fat fingers between the wheel and the 04 caliper.That gives you at least 3/4" clearance making it good for a rotor around 1 1/2" larger than the 04.Do NOT take this as gospel but just fat finger measurements.

It could work out, I don't have any experience with the wheels other than seeing yours Anthony. But I did do a 05 brake conversion to my 04 so I had a chance to see the two set ups side by side and the 05 caliper is quite a bit beefier in all directions. With the combination of the 1" larger rotor and the larger caliper its going to be close for sure.

Sounds like the 17" front would take care of it, but the look wouldn't be quite the same.

Does someone make 17" front runner tires?
