Dealing with issues like this is never fun. Its kind of late now, but finding a drawing like this prior to wheel purchase is a must when we start using different brakes. It's what let me know that what I bought should clear the rotors. Hopefully, the link works. It was the first thing I could find.

Added rambling!! American Racing may have quit making them. Other companies could still make a similar version. I had found the same style by another company years ago that had the back spacing that was more desirable, but it doubled the price. In retrospect, I should have paid the double cost. Coys is someone that sell rims, they would have been my next choice. I talked with someone there that was very confident the wheels would clear any brakes.
