Alcon BBK on factory 19s

My car is due for a brake upgrade now and I have chosen to go with the Alcon instead of the APs and Brembos. I have used the AP on my GTR so wanted to try something different. Unfortunately my wheels haven't arrived in time, so I was wondering if anyone knows if the Alcon will fit inside the factory 1M wheels. I found a few templates online and checked, it seems like they would but I'm not 100% sure. Anyone have any idea?

Thanks in advance.

The Alcon kit was designed and developed for the M3 running oem wheels, I have seen 1 or 2 about running stock wheels with no clearance issues. I have run and still am running an Alcon set up on another car moving from AP. Great kit.

Can confirm it fits with oem 1m wheels, im running them now, theres about 3-4mm to spare around the calipers to the wheel, but it fits
