Default Anyone with VOLK ZE40?

i'm looking forward to get a set of VOLK ZE40 for my 350Z, but i'm a bit confused about the fitment on the Rays webpage. the 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +22 would be my choice (standard 350Z offsets). this thread is not about the offsets it's more about the fitment with BBK! on the Rays webpage the state that these offsets don't and do fit 350Z with Brembo brake calipers?!?!?! WTF!! (maybe it's a translation error since the webpage is original in japanese).
they also give you the hubclearance in mm , but i have absolutly no clue how and where to measure (i'm not a noob i know what hubclearance means , but how do you really measure it out).
maybe someone already has a set of those wheels installed. input is very welcome!!

Check with Bulletproof, they usually have this wheel in stock as they have sold them on the evo forums.

^ +1 to Bulletproof

Also check with ravspec, they're a knowledgeable and reputable Volk/Work/etc supplier.

19x9.5+24 (face 2) and 19x9.5+31 (face 3) clear Brembo. When they refer to "big caliper models" they are referring to Non-Brembo calipers like Akebono.

EDIT: For what it's worth, I just looked at the TE-37RT chart and it says the 18x10.5+18 does not clear Brembo but I know for a fact that it does. So don't listen to me. Take the above advise from others and find out how to properly measure.
