Default Which 17s fit an RS...

As per the title, does anyone know any 17" alloys which fit a Mk1 RS?

I know the RS can take 17s but only certain ones will clear the caliper depth wise as the ones I intended on using, the front of the calipers hit the back of the spokes...

Any suggestions?

Cheers!

The standard 18" wheels are 8" wide running 225/40 so I would say you would need 17x8 wheels.

Why do you want to put 17"s on the Mk1 RS? They'll look odd and wont fill the arches.
