BBK with stock wheels?

I was just curious, I know the sport brakes will not work with the stock 18 inch wheels, but are there any after market BBK's that will work with factory wheels? The 4 pot AP racing ones sound like they might because they are only using 13 inch rotors like the stock size. Anyone know?

Anyone know if the stock 19's will clear the Rotora 15" 12-piston kit?

I have the brakes on my car now. I currently have 20" iForged Aeros and a set of G35 19's for spares. I wanted to sell the G35 19's and get a set of G37 19's for my spares but I don't want to deal with spacers to clear the spokes.

20s should fit the 12 pot since solopresident had the 12 pot on his 20s.

My question is:

Does anyone know if the G37 OEM 19's will clear my brakes? I know 20's will fit, as do the G35 coupe Ray's 19's, I have both of those now. I am trying to find out if the OEM G37 19's will clear my calipers.

Nice Hmm... Not sure about the wheels clearing though. What offsets are the wheels that clear and how close do they get to the BBK? I think our stock offsets are in the 40's... Not 100% sure though...

The G37 BBK has to all be changed over, not just the calipers.
