Are the Akebono brakes on the Coupe the same as the ones on the Sedan?
I have the 2009 G37xS so I don't have the bigger brakes that are on the non-AWD sport model. I was looking at putting on the coupe's brake kit but I want to make sure that they will fit without me having to put on new wheels. My car has the new Sport 18" wheels that are also found on the non-AWD model with the bigger brakes. I've heard that the brakes are in fact different and may not fit under the wheel. I know the offsets are different between the Coupe's and the Sedan's wheels so there may be some truth to the matter.

Thanks. Just to be perfectly clear, I can order the G37 BBK you guys are selling and have it installed on my G37xS Sedan without any issues (i.e. keep the stock wheels, etc).
Yes. That's what I did and many other members in G35Driver.com did.
Right, but from what I understand you needed to change the wheels on 2008 and earlier model to get the brakes to fit. I want to keep the stock wheels on my 2009.
