Tirerack will not sell anything less than a 17 for the 10th gen Si's, and running 17's as snows, I would agree with this.
It is already tight to the caliper, so I would bet 16's would not clear. But I could be wrong here.

That said PRL on their site sells this:

Just for running 15's, 8th gen Si caliper and rotor swap.
Dang RockAuto sells the kit for 190$ Shipped

I looked at it... still debating if when I want to get serious and put down the best ET time at the track. But record holder for the platform is simply doing it with 17 inch wheels up front .... no need to downgrade .... plus I wonder how small that kit would look when you aren’t at the track with an open face wheel. Idk just some things I’m thinking about ....

I’m wondering if the 27won BBK will allow for 17s still ....
