Brembo GT brakes and Mini RC90 rims?

Can anybody tell me if the Brembo brake set will fit with the RC90 Mini rims? I am looking to upgrade by brakes and the Brembos are my first choice. Sorry if this has been covered before.

Thanks Alex.

I really like the look of my RC90's and don't want to change them. Some red Brembo calipers peeking through should look pretty nice!

The only BBK ive seen thats fits under the R90's w/o a spacer are the UUC's. Im sure there are other ones that fit without a spacer, I just have not come across them.

seen here:

Well, I cleared on one side....but decided best to supply the .065" wheel spacer.

Pics are somewhere in the Vendor anouncement forums.

The RLMini 17" BBK also clears the MINI R90 wheel.
