Ok so I looked through 7 pages of threads looking for an answer and came close but didn't find an answer so sorry for posting a dumb question.
Im running Eibach Pro springs on my 01 and wondering if SRT-4 wheels will fit? I see that they will fit with a 40 series tire on stock setup but I have different springs..
Helps me please
Oh and if anyone is running this setup, pics would be greatly appreciated!! =]

you will need to used a 205 40 17 in order for it too fit
and if you used stock tires it will not fit cause of your strut are too low/not high enough too fit the wheel..
or
just get some srt 4 strut and used your lower spring and used the stock tired which are 204 50 17
and there you go

Thanks mang.
A suspension damper and strut is the same thing correct?
The guy selling the wheels is also selling some srt "suspension dampers"
Would SRT struts raise my car at all?

Suspension damper = shock absorber.
I'm pretty sure SRT struts will lower your car.

srt struts will not lower your car. they will allow you to run a bigger tire due to the perch (the base where the spring sits) is higher.
your springs do not really affect the size of the rim/tire that you can run. its all about the struts.

srt struts will raise the car aprox .25-.5 of an inch. but with the more meaty tire it will look lower. after i spent like 700 on tokico blues and progress springs im wishing i would have gone either coilovers or srt struts because im hating these thin ass tires. save up your money and buy srt struts or buy coilovers..

I'm using 205/45/17's for my srt's with the eibachs and stock struts. They are perfect for those who don't have to turn the wheel all the way because if you do they rub slightly.
