Brembo GTR brakes clearing stock wheels?

Just wondering if these brakes would clear stock 18in turbo wheels. I may be selling my wheels and if so, would have stock wheels for the car to sit on for the interim.
Thanks!

My GT monobloc 6-piston fronts won't even come close to clearing. Clearance requirement is 420mm. I don't know how my dimensions might differ from the R.

The OEM Turbo wheels will not clear the GTR brakes. The OEM GT2 wheels however WILL clear.

Hope this helps.

No problem...

And just to give you some insight, we had a set of GTR brakes on our old 996TT and even had them on our 997TT for a bit.

My response was not from hearsay. We actually have first hand knowledge.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
