Is there a 17" wheel that can go over 14" stoptechs?

I have messed around with three sizes and offsets of the 17's 5Zingens to fit over my 14" front brakes, no luck. Looks like I will be getting 18's. Oh well.
So the question I have for all you road racing Z's is (since Toyo RA1's come in more sizes for 18's):
Front - 275 Rear - 275
or
Front - 275 Rear 305
I am leaning towards the first option since it is a more balanced set up, yet I talked to some Toyo reps last week and said to go with the second.
Help me ou.

Hello guys,
I am resurrecting this thread as the last post was in 2006. I'm looking to set up a set of 17" track tires and according to this thread the 5zigen FN01-RC is the way to go in order to clear the 14" front Stoptech BBK.
Has there been any new wheel options for 17" inch clearance lately?
I've read through this thread and it seemed a lot of people ordered the 5zigen but didn't post their results on clearing the Stoptech. Photos would be sweet.
I am thinking of going 17x10x17 +35 all around with 255x40x17 front and 275x40x17 rears. (NT-01s).
Would be great if someone could verify my idea. Thanks!
