Guys running ctsv 4 piston and 14 inch rotor I need help

Got the setup to run ctsv 05 calipers all the way around my 1992 formula. So now looking to wheels that fit and don't have it all yet to mock it up but trying to get wheels so question is how much does this new caliper stick out towards the wheel and possibly limit what rim can be used. I was told most concave style wheels are ok. I am looking at 18x9.5 rims and really like this esr sr01 or esr sr05 style similar to my stock cross lace rim. They might be flat I cannot tell from pics but having a front lip I have read that can be an issue and maybe a spacer can make up for it but trying to get the right wheel so don't need any spacers. Modwerks on eBay is going to take the bmw 120mm pattern and 12 bucks each cut them to a 120.65 so it is correct so no adapter is needed. I guess if anyone has done th work and has the measurement from the rotor face to the caliper front so I know what dimension offset or style wheel will clear the caliper face.

I found this but need the dimensions if anyone has done this to get their wheel and setup.
Thanks for help in advance! 👍

I have front brakes of the car, but can put caliper on to rotor and messere the distance do top of the caliper if it will help. I'm running stock c6 wheels with spacer 1,75? Not surre.

The last photo is a 2010 camaro ss caliper (same as CTSV) BUT its on a 1LE hub and also if you look close he has a small adapter/spacer on the assembly
