Aside from the usual ebay disclaimer, I'm not sure that this particular style wheel will clear S4 or Stoptech calipers, despite what the ad says.  I don't think the 16" oe version clears S4 calipers, but then the offset on those is 43 I believe vs 35 for these 17".  I'd double check with the seller to make sure.
