Default Opinions on GT/CS rims on a Reg GT? Fitment?

Hey guys,

I am looking to buy these rims http://miami.craigslist.org/pbc/pts/3784565725.html

but I am first wondering if they will clear the Brembo brakes I have?

Second I am wonder what everyones opinions are. Should I keep the Brembo rims or go with these GT/CS rims that have been painted Gloss Black.

the GT/CS is a 19 inch rim... if that helps, I just bought a set and put em on my 08, but I don't have upgraded brakes either

It's not necessarily the size of the wheel, it's the offset. I would venture to say they won't clear the Brembos as the spokes will probably hit them.
