I was looking for some new wheels for myself on Tempe Tyres and found this:

http://www.tempetyres.com.au/products_closeup.asp?part=&part_no=625

The Hiro boasts generous caliper clearance and will even fit over factory Brembo brakes and many aftermarket kits as well.

Might be an option for people looking for aftermarket wheels to fit over those BIIIIG brakes. I have no idea on the price, but I'm sure Tempe can help you there.

Here's some pic for the lazy people

I thought Brembo calipers were narrower than, say Supra RZ calipers? The design of that particular wheel looks like it'd hit them (the face looks like they're concave).

Ahh no probs then :-) Just make sure it fits over 95~ Supra brakes and you should be fine if you decide to get them :-)
