They will fit all 18" 350Z Stock wheels. The Kit requires 18+ rims, but depends on the offset of the wheel, I can't say that it'll fit most. The Template is your only way to confirm.

For the GTS owners considering these, this is how they look. Only about a 1/4 inch
clearance from the spokes. Thanks COZ. Exellent customer service.

I know you can get them in yellow through powdercoating. Email or talk to Coz. He responds to his Emails almost instantly.

I was looking to order the front package shipped to 98383.
I saw that it doesn't come with new brake lines and that it says (on your website) that existing lines work just fine.
Is there a difference between Brembo and Non Brembo lines?

I think a vendor is not the right person to ask because the answer most likely
would be yes. And many guys would not feel comfortable entering into a vendors thread and give negative review about the product. I remember reading a lot of reviews in the "Brake and Suspension" forum from people that actually used both products. That is a better way. Try searching "Akebono".

Yes, my powder coated calipers are about a year old now, and I'm running Stoptech Performance pads, and Track the vehicle also. They still look like I just installed them for the very 1st time.
