Brembo to stock front brakes?
I have an 08 nismo 350z and I just recently purchased some low offset wheels and the front wheels won't clear my brembos without a 25mm spacer which is too much. So I decided to temporarily downgrade my front brakes to fit them till I apply boost down the road. I was wondering if I would be able to run stock brakes in the front and keep my rear brembos or would I have to swap out the entire brake setup? thanks

If you need stock 08 brakes I may know someone ( <---- ) who could sell you some!

If you're really serious just run full non-Brembo so you won't have any issues.

I'm only stating this is a phase in life, when I can afford boost I will get less aggressive offset wheels being the reason I don't want to necessarily get rid of the brembos just temporarily switch them out!

For sale references removed, make a thread if you want to sell your brakes but don't solicit them here.

Looks like you can go no-Brembo to Brembo without any adapter. If true than you can go Brembo to no-Brembo:

Sounds like a stupid idea to remove brembos for any wheels. Run the spacer or change wheels
