Didn't you get a really good deal on the Brembos? Rims will come and go but a good quality BBK at a discounted price, not often. I don't mean to sway you one way or the other, just my opinion. It just makes more sense to me to lose the Sevas and keep the Brembos.

To figure out what you need to clear go to Stoptechs web site and print off some of the templets for the BBK, it an easy way to see what you need to clear the BBK. With my DPEs i needed a 18mm-20mm spacer in the front but my wheels where flat and had a +37mm offset. Sux that they wont fit but I would get new wheels, that was my plan but I could not give my wheels away. I think with sevas youll have more luck selling them.

Take your time I was in the same boat, its really frustrating I know. To clear the GT i think you will need 48mm clearance from the wheel hub, thats about 1.891 inches, look at stoptechs website or even Rotoras for similar kit.

I have had 4 sets of wheels in 2.5 years. There's nothing wrong with getting new ones.
