2010 G37 xs sport brake upgrade


I just bought a nice black 2010 G37xs and I would like to know if the stock wheels will install on the sport brakes? I searched and could not find a precise answer.Thanks

The road wheels will clear the brakes, but the compact spare will not, AFAIK. The 2-WD "S" model comes with a different compact spare.

Are the "xs" wheels on my car the same dimensions as the "S" sedan wheels that look identical?

Yours are the same as the front wheels on the RWD S models, they are 7.5" wide, the RWD has a staggered set w/ 7.5/8.5" combo.

Are there any additional brackets needed for the calipers?

No, everything you need is listed in that thread I linked. You will need to trim the dust shields though, and that process is detailed in the first post in that thread under the 370z link.

Can someone please point me to the best supplier for an Akebono Big Brake Kit, I don't know if it's allowable to mention suppliers here,but some of them seem to have bad reviews. Thanks
