Will 2003 350z stock 17's clear brembos?

My Anniversary Edition 350z wheels clear the Brembo Gran Turismo big brake kit. My winter wheels are the stock 17's, and I know they wont clear the BBK. I am looking to buy the stock 17" 350Z wheels, so I can swap them in the winter.

Anyone know if they will clear?

I believe they are:

Fronts 17x7.5 30 offset
Rears: 17x8 33 offset

You best bet is to measure them and see. I mean. Since you already have the other Z rims the stock rims should have the same caliper clearence. It would not make sense for nissan to make it a different clearence if the 'better rims" were for the same car.

How big is the Brembo Gran Turismo kit? I have these wheels over the cobra/z32 kit, no problems.

17" stock Z wheels will clear the factory Nissan brembo package I believe. All the stock 18" and G35" 18" and 19" oem wheels all cleared my BBK stuff. And mine stick out a good amount.
