yes, barely. You will have to relocate wheel weights.

take it into a tireshop and move the weights out of the way and have it rebalanced, then it'll clear

Default Wheel weights are normally placed.....(more)
close to the outer edge of the rim. The clearance between your Stoptech caliper and the inner rim is very small. So small in fact that the height of the wheel wieghts will scrape against the caliper.

So you must insist that your local tire install place the weights in the center of the rim.

I blew a front tire and drove on a 17" Avus S4 wheel for ~ 2 miles. Can I still use the rim?
