s13 7-spoke stock rim can clear 26mm calipers. There are 2 different s13 stockk SE rims. Outside looks same, but inside design is different. Only one of them can clear 26mm calipers. Since width of your wheel is already 8.5, you should have plenty of room for calipers. If not, 5-10mm spacer should take care of it. Spacers will also help clearing struts too.
