Can OZ's fit 14's?

Just curious if the OZ Rallys can fit 14's? I know they have a bigger bolt pattern then the ES models but I wasn't sure if the brake calipers were too big or something. They look like they would fit but I don't want to buy some and then have them not fit. I am getting an extra pair of wheels for Rallycross and I found some cheap 14's with tires, thats why I'm asking. Thanks in advance!

yes, they can fit 14s.

my buddy has some konig 14s that he runs for autox.

actually... now that i think about it they may be 13s--but i can't remember off the top of my head. either way, they are small.

If they're anything like my Civic, 14's wil be fine...but when dropping down to 13's you might need to get out the grinder to clearence the assembly. Plus the offset has alot to do with it too!

we rolled the fenders with a baseball bat for the first race with the smaller rims on last year. there is a little rubbing on the splash guards--but he runs FSP and is not permitted to remove them.

^That makes no sense. If the ES can use 14s, so can the OZ since they're the same car.

yeah, you shouldn't have issues. and if you do you won't be rolling on those rims permanently and a little rubbing you can just deal with, you know?

Why would anyone want to roll on 13's? 14's are somewhat decent w/ better rubber compound on my RIP mirage LS coupe. 15's feels much better on the road than 14's. 16's (21-25 lbs each) feels negligible to 15's in performance. Any bigger = tires gets too heavy.

It's like saying a Supra owner wanting to roll on 15's or 14's?
