Default Drag wheel setup to clear bremos

Ive searched, and saw alot of different setups includings welds/z32 wheels/rx7 wheels/ But Im onsure if any of them will clear the factory bremos.

So does anyone know a wheel and tire setup that will just bolt up without rolling and clearing the brembos

Z32 and RX7 16" wheels do clear the Brembos. I have tried them myself on my friend's ride

According to Scott in this post https://my350z.com/forum/drag/214771-just-picked-up-some-300zx-tt-wheels-2.html
the stock z32 16x8.5 TT wheels had interference with the ribs on the inside of the wheel hitting the caliper. They could possibly be machined off though. I have no idea of the 16x7.5 z32 front wheels will fit.

The ones we tried were the Z32 16x7.5, no problem at all.
RX7 has the 16x8 and were fine too
