brake kits that fit the RWD sedans will fit the AWD sedans.

They will fit the only issue you may have is with the larger caliphers working with your factory offset wheels you might need to invest in a set of spacers.

They will fit but wheel clearance can be an issue.

^ If you are referring to the sedan 18" wheels you will still need spacers or buy a set of G35 coupe or 350z wheels something with about a +33 since that's what the 350z G35coupe with the brembos come with.

I'm not 100% sure if the stock wheels will still fit or not. The oem brembos are only 12.8" so 17" diameter is fine. The concern is the offset and the spokes hitting the caliper. My RB 332mm 4-pot kit clears my oem sedan sport wheels but are very, very close. Not sure if the oem brembos stick out any more or not.

Ask the seller what the offsets are on your SSR in front..I am referring to the front two wheels by the way. You want to make sure they are in the +35 to +38 (+33 would be perfect because you will not need a spacer) range in front that way you can get by with a small spacer 2mm to 5mm if necessary as far as what to measure I don't know how they determine the offset but I know if you stay in the range I listed at worst you'll need a smaller spacer to get you in spec with the coupe and 350z stock offsets.

Isnt the bigger the offset the more space there is for the BBK calipers to fit?

My SSRs are +40mm offset

^ No it's the other way around. For a sedan you want to stay in the high to mid 30s to accomidate larger calipers up front but even +40 is okay just depends on how the wheels are clearing your stock calipers now... Your +40mm offset is good for AWD they probably sit tucked in the front and slightly tucked just below your fender line in the rear?

Same issue over here G. I've been researching this for a while now. Unfortunately, it all comes down to trial and error. You have to test fit the brembos with your SSR rims. Rim offset is a good indicator, but it all depends on the way your rims spokes are shaped that will determine if the BBK will fit or not.

The only Sedan w/the OE Brembo set up was running 20x8.5 Work VS-XX rim with a 42 offset I believe and a 5 mm spacer to clear the front. The rear is usually easier to clear. Do a search, I believe his screen name was HKSjz80.

I'd look at a G/Z with brembos and try to measure how far out the calipers stick out. Then measure that same dist with your SSR wheel on. See if it will clear.

Or the other way is just to mount the caliper and then mount the wheel. Easy
