Default G35c: brembos and stock 17's? anyway to make it fit?

Can you make the g35(6 speed )/350z track brembos fit under the stock 17's with some modification on a g35 coupe? Spacers perhaps? not sure.

This has been done by many, the 17 inch wheel will bolt right over the Brembos. No adjustments neccesary. I have 13 inch rotors and 4 piston Stoptech brakes, and in the winter, I run my stock 17 inch wheels with no clearance issues whatsoever.

I was told that on my G35 coupe the stock 17's won't fit over the brembos? Maybe the 350z 17's are different?

Hmm..well, I've seen the stock Z 17 inch wheels over the Z's Brembos, but I havent seen the 350Z's 17's on a G35, so perhaps someone else can confirm this.

sorry I don't mean to confuse anyone. I have my stock 17's (not 350z)on my g35c but want to put in Brembos from a 350z track/G35 6MT.

no, they just barely scrape the brembos. with a 3mm spacer you could probably get away with it, but I had problems using my wifes coupe's 17s on my Z with brembos when I had to send my wheels back to iforged for 6 AND A HALF MONTHS FOR REPAIR! Had to buy performance 18s to get by.

2003z, did you try to put them on the front or rear? I was told rear fit fine but front are the problem. Do you think a 5mm spacer kit would do the trick?
