Default Wheel fitment question (maybe for Gary@Tirerack?)

Will 18 inch OZ Forgiata fit over Brembo 355 GT brakes? My 18x8.5 (ET 37 I think) Work wheels have about 2 mm of clearance for the brakes. This is on an 01 S4. Also, right now I have Pirelli Nero M&S 235/40/18 on them, what's the chance of fitting Goodyear F1 GS-D3 255/35/18 on those Forgiata wheels? Fenders are rolled already, with PSS9 coilovers at 25.5 inch.

I do not show that this is one of the wheels that will clear the Brembo 355 BBK. While 255/35R18 may not fit the B5 the tires will mount on 8.5" wheels with no problem.

Default Thanks for the prompt reply Gary.

Which lightweight 18s do you folks carry that will clear the 355s?
