Default Need help with wheel setup

I am not too savvy when it comes to cars but I am wanting to put some new wheels on my 350 and later on I would like to upgrade to the brembo breaks , as of right now I have OEM breaks ... my question is can I buy rims that are made to fit the brembo brakes and install them on my car and while I still have the OEM brakes on ?will they fit correctly if I haven't upgraded to the brembo brakes yet ?

i would think that it would be OK and everything would fit being as there will just be more clearance for the calipers but I could be wrong can someone please help!

there is always spacers if you ever run into Offset problems with the Brembos. My front needed 10mm clearance because it would rub. Most concave wheel will need to be approx 16+ offset at front while in the back 20+ offset, the best thing to do is search for a wheel you like, then ask members for their fitment/sizes..copy and paste and avoid the trouble...
