Default brake clearance in wheels

Just wondering how much clearing the 17x9 and 18x9 Bullitt wheel's have...I'm looking at this brake kit "http://www.seanhylandmotorsport.com/online/product_info.php?cPath=46&products_id=908" (preparing for autocross) and want to make sure before i order the wheels if these brakes have enough clearance...

I can tell you right now they wont fit the bullitts. They will fit the fr500s, Steedas rims, and the cobra rims though. You cant even fit the 4 piston cobra R brakes with the bullitts. the caliper wont clear

Yes the Cobra/Bullitt/Mach 1 brakes will fit all 17"+ Mustang rims.
