Spare wheel questions

I now have 225/45/R18's on all fours, looking at buying a Sti space saver for future brembo conversion,

The space saver is to suit 17inch sti wheels, would this be a problem (rolling diameter issues) or is it a matter of buying a new tyre (ontop of the inflated space saver price) to suit the other four wheels?

Do you have to use a space saver...as in.... is that the only rim/tyre you can fit?
Or would you prefer to run a full sized spare.
I'll check the tyre size on my 17"Brembo clearing space saver tonight and let you know what size it is.

No don't have to buy a space saver but there isn't too many single 18's around to work with.

This one has come up so but dont want to run something thatll fark the AWD system by having a completely different rolling diameter
