Well, I went over to dean's house today, to try on his wheels. We thought that they would have enought room to clear the STI brakes, so we gave it a shot. However, even as roomy as they look, they are still 1/2" short of clearance, so basicaly, they would need a 15mm spacer to clear comfortably. We measured my wheels and from the base of the lug plate to the spoke is 1.5 inches! I didn;t realize how big the brakes really were, the search for wheels continues.

BTW thanks Dean
