How would I find out how much brake caliper clearance a particular wheel like the XXR 006 has?

I'm not familiar with the "BBK" abbreviaton. What does that mean?

I assume you're talking about how the OEM 18" 370Z rims have no lip yet offsets of 43mm front/15mm rear. The rear wheel has a noticably bigger "bloom" in the spokes than the front wheels because of the smaller offset. If I understand you right, to have no lip with a low offset you'd have to have spokes that "bloom" forward because a flat spoke design with low offset would have a big lip. Was that your point?
