4.4i and 17" wheels

Quick question guys, can the 4.4i accomodate 17" BMW wheels? I know the front brake rotors and calipers are the same as on the 3.0i which came stock with 17" wheels, but the rear calipers on the 3.0i are different from the 4.4i and also the rotors are thicker by 8mm. Thanks.

I have 17" rims for my winter setup on my 4.4. During the summer, I have the staggered 19" setup.

Good luck!

Bingo! So no problem with rear wheel to caliper clearance then? Thanks for the great help.
