Default Will These Wheels Fit with OEM Brembo's?

quick question...i was about to order my wheels today but i'm pondering if they will fit or not. i have multiple vendors telling me that they will and some that are telling me that they wont...

i was going to order the work xd9 in matte bronze 18x10 + 18 for all four corners. i have oem brembo's. will these wheels clear the brembo's? if not, what spacer would be required? there isn't much room to play with on pushing the wheels out any further, specially if i plan on being slammed sometimes...

thanks!

Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

this doesn't really help me because knowing the stock wheel offsets doesn't tell me the limit (how close i can get to the caliper). i need to know if this specific design of wheel will fit with the oem brembo's. i know the rears are fine, the fronts are whats in question. i also know that a 18x9 + 20 offset will fit in the front, i just want to have the same width all around for tire purposes and i don't like the looks of the face on the 9 inch wheel.

thanks thou...
