I've already done the search...came up with inconclusive evidence.
I read that the Z32tt wheels do/don't fit.
FD Rx7 wheels do fit, but only one person mentioned it...that's not conclusive to me.
Alberto mention the Weld XP Pros, but they aren't made anymore.
So what are my options? In the past, I used BFG 265/40/18 DRs on my stock 18" wheels. I want a bigger sidewall and would prefer a wider wheel for a better contact patch.

Z32TT wheels do NOT fit over Brembos rear calipers in all stock form. If you are set on using them, you might be able to file just a tad off the wheel spline assuming the balancing weights are not in the way. I did not try this, but it seems plausible, as it's just a couple of mm too small. If you can make that work, you can run the 16x10.5 or x11.5 MT ET Streets. That's what I use for much more HP.

I would also be interested to see what kind of skinnies would clear brembos in the front
FD wheels do fit although they offset is a little bit too far in, I used them last year. This year I had a 17 inch Mustang cobra wheel that worked as well, but i need more sidewall
