Default 17" G5 GT wheels on a 2009 SS?

I posted this question to CSS and nobody answered.

The 17" G5 GT wheel. Does it clear the Brembos on the front of the SS? I'd like to think yes since the 17" Cobalt SS wheel does but I'm not going to drop the dough on these without being sure.

They barely clear but will scrape the Brembo's a bit when cornering hard. You'll see some of the finish scraped off the Brembo's.

Most run 3-5 mm spacers to cure this.

Here's the sticky thread over there on the 17" wheels when you have the time.
