Default OZ alloys to clear AP 380mm 6pot

Hi guys, I have a set of OZ Super T's on my Escos and I love them. However I have bought a pair of AP 380mm 6pot brakes and the alloys wont allow the calipers to clear. Are there any 18" OZ or similar look alloys out there to allow these to clear? Or will I have to go down the Compomotive MO route?

Cheers

I have been chatting to Mike Rainbird and he reckons its only the first batch of New Mo's that wont accommodate 380's, but the new batch will

He said he is very confident that they will. My calipers are away being refurbished at the moment, once they come back Mike is going to check the clearence So hopefully not too long.................

Of course I'm in the wrong F#kin room!! Mike said they should fit with Escos offsets but probably not with Sierra offset
