...The 20mm offset will not work with a brembo big brake kit...

Is this only for the Style 42 wheels, or is this true for all 18x8 ET20 wheels?

The reason I'm asking is that I have a set of M Parallel wheels in 18x8 ET20 and I have ordered the Brembo 13" brake kit too. Getting spacers to space the wheel out 5mm might do the trick. I'm wondering if the design of our wheels is different enough that my combo might work? The caliper might clear in this situation since it is going to be placed further out on the radius of the wheel. The M Parallel have more and more clearance as you move outwards along the spokes.

Any thoughts on this?
