Default Z51 front brakes and 17 inch rims

I currently have a set of C5 Z06 rims that I use for autocrossing, and am looking to upgrade to z51 brackets and rotors.

Does anyone know if the 17 inch front rims will clear the Z51 brakes?

OR Does anyone happen to have the Center to maximum outside clearance needed for the Z51 brakes?

Since my Z51 18" wheels only have about a 1/4" clearance to the caliper I would say that 17" front wheels would not fit.
