Tony you looking for something new or 2nd hand?

Gmax I know have a rim call the Drift6 (I think)... It's a 17inch rim that does clear Brembos :D I'm currently using mine as a spare. I think they are worth about $325 a rim... So they aren't exactly cheap by the time you put tyres on them.

When looking at rims you need to be careful with what's call "X Factor", which is the distance from the front of the rotor to the inside edge of the spoke. Most companies won't give you this info, so just be aware :D

I think you'd be best to look at a 2nd hand set of STI rims... Probably the easiest thing to come by that will clear Brembo's... Probably amoung the cheapest as well I would say.
