Default Will this brake kit fit on my 350Z?

I was wanting to kit this kit for my 350Z, but I am not sure if they will fit with my wheels. I currently have 19" MSR wheels with a +40 offset. Will this fit? Also, does anybody know the size of the rotors on this kit (13", 14")?

I don't know. What is the clearance between your current wheels and rotors?

I think they are assuming that the kit is going on a non brembo car.

I have about 3 inchs from the rotors to the inside of the wheel. The inside of the spoked are about 1.5" form the caliper.

1.5 inches clearance is a lot of room. I think you will be OK. Send fastbrakes a email.

worst case you have enough room to run spacers since you are running 40mm offfsets.

Yes. Wilwood is a popular brake kit. Just search Wilwood.

Wilwood calls them Superlites. The Wilwood website lists 6 piston calipers for the 350Z, not 4. Those might be old model or closeouts. The 4 piston ones don't show a 350Z application on their website.
