Does all 19" rims clear akebono?
I got 19x8.5+35 and 19x9.5+40 axis penta.
Would this clear akebono's?

I'd love to get the Akebonos but there ain't no way I'm adding a good 10lbs+ of rotor weight to each front wheel to run the oem rotors. Add another $900 for 2pc rotors that don't weigh near 30lbs EACH.

Best compromise would be the OEM BREMBO kit on racing brake 2pc rotors.

More affordable than what? 1pc rotors? No. But as a whole, you could probably get an used set of oem brembos front/rear + 2pc front rotors / 1 pc rear rotors for about 2 grand.

2 grand for the Akebonos get you 1 pc fronts.

You'll have to search racing brake's site and the 2pc Akeboner for sale thread here.

If I have an 03 G35 sedan with the sport package does that mean I have the brembo calipers? They dont say brembo on them from what I can see.
