yup, they'll fit...although if your looking for a good set of winter tires i'd look at dunlop's. i'm pretty disapointed in my blizzaks.

I have a similar setup....I'm running Dunlop Winter Sport M3 225/55/17's on all four corners. I put them on ASA KA3 rims which are 7.5 as well.....I'm not sure about the offset, but I believe they would clear the Brembo's.
I cannot complain about the setup. Rides well, not noisy, and is decent in the snow and slush we get here in New Jersey.
a couple old pics from the first year I put them on.

I'm not familiar with the W-50's, but thats a decent price for a complete winter set up. I paid close to $1,200 for mine brand new.
