First of all the rear is not a problem on the fitting of the "Bullitt" style wheels. Only the front is a problem. Now in the front you have the Wilwood brakes which already move the wheel out 1/2" or so. The aftermarket brake kits all have spacers ... you are not riding on the 'hub' anyway. The all come with very long wheel studs and spacers that they include for your vehicle so that wheels clear calipers, and close to original wheel placement is achieved.
So if you are using brakes such as Wilwood you are using spacers anyway. It would be easy to contact Wilwood and request a thicker spacer with the kit or to buy the correct spacer from a company such as Performance Wheel and Tire. There is also the hubcentric variety by H&R Springs. These are used on road rallye cars to widen the track for better handling.
