I am looking at buying these rims for my car..

I am doing the C5 front brake swap and am wondering about the caliper clearance. I went over to the Kore website and downloaded the template and printed it. Problem is i went over to the big rim shops around here and nobody carries this wheel. They could order it but only if i paid for them upfront. I don't want to order them either from Jegs or the shops till i know for sure they would fit. I plan on buying two first then the other two later. :roll: Does anybody have these rims with the bigger rotor? If not what rims are you running that have enough clearance?
 
From what I've read, the wheel fitment issues with the C5 upgrade stem from the "spokes", or whatever you may call them, turning back in towards the center of the wheel. On the wheels you posted, it does not appear to do this so I would think they would work. Just my opinion though.
 
Thatss what im hoping. :lol: Still undecided on 17's or 18's on all four corners or a staggered set though. Anybody running these rims? pics would be nice to give me a general idea what they look like on a G body. 8)
