They are the same size as the US ones but they have different offsets

I think the rears are 10.2 and the fronts are 12.8 I want to say? The rears aren't anything to look at really, they're exactly the same as USDM EP3/DC5/DC5-S except painted red. like he said, offset on the rotor is different, and I have not seen the measurements for the entire rotor... but they are +60mm offset in the front, the wheels are.

Good shot of the TALL hat portion of the brakes (the yellow part, of course). The fronts are the same way, and that's why rims with such high offset are needed. Otherwise, they'd stick out beyond the fenders.

Yup, here's what the DC5R Brembos look like with 05 STi wheels, 17x8 + 45mm offset. Clears the calipers great, and 8" wide is very nice, but they stick out like a ****:






The ITR wheels are 17x7 +60mm offset, and cast, about 19lbs per wheel. The STi wheels are 17x8 +45mm offset, forged, and about 15 lbs per wheel... much better wheel, but unfortunatly stick out would probably rub bad.
