The good old will they fit. Its hard to tell just from offsets alone but you would think that from some deep dish alloys that they might curve around the Brembos. You never know until you have a go!

There are some quite deep wheels on the German forum.

These ones are 18x8.5, apparently

German coupe

Love those wheels.. If I save up quite a bit this year, then may get some deep dish and store the original plus ones.

I'm not really a big fan of those, although I have to admit some can look quite good on the coupe.

I had these wheels on mine (17", 8j wide and 235/40/17 tyres IIRC) when I bought the car, but I hated them so swapped them for a set of original plus wheels with some German guy

wheels 1
wheels 2
wheels 3

they are just to complicated. Any alloys that have too much going on just look awful to me.

I actually think those wheels would look good on a coupe. The car in the ad made me laugh though. What a pile of halfords tat.
