When looking at the part numbers for the caliber and the rotors, there is no difference between a 17 and a 20. So I would think that you could. The info that I looked up was for a 2007. Not sure what year yours is, but I could look it up for yours if you tell me the year.

LOL, you guys do not even know if he has the silver or clad 20s and are ready to trade.

I do like the 06+ 20s better than mine. I would like a set, but think I might buy SRT replias instead if I do anything.
