i'm not sure these are the same caliper as the ctsv rear. Can you get a center to center measurement of the caliper mount holes. Also not sure they'll clear 17s...

Hey Mike, When they show up I'll shoot you the measurement. I think I read in an earlier post that they were supposed to be the same but with slightly different pistons??? Who knows, but we will know soon I guess. I can even send one to you if that would help.. Thanks..

Hey Mike... Quick Polish measurement shows 4.75" center of threaded hole to center of threaded hole... I can throw a dial caliper on there later if needed... Does this sound the same as the CTS-V rear caliper??

Is there any update on this thread? Just got 07 CTS-V front calipers and need new brakes soon anyways. Looking to get some brackets and lines, get this going. Also, I emailed Sportmachines about it, just seeing about the rears as well. I would like to convert to disc and do those this spring as well. Lastly, I am running steel 18" Camaro wheels, I know Sportmachines camo Ty has the same winter wheels. Will these clear the front and rear brake setup? Eventually they will be just my winter rollers, but it must fit. I'm even opening to modifying the wheels if its minimal clearancing.

Thanks mike, I'll pass on the kiss but order the kit pretty soon. I know that the caliper needs 2 1/2" clearance from the rotor face, but is that from the typhoon rotor or Z06? Is there a difference in depth between the two? Right now my wheels sit at 2 1/4" and I'm willing to space them another 1/4" if that's needed

Renz and sportmachines. Pm one or both they will hook you up. Just watch out the upgrde bug will bite and brake upgrade will quickly turn into a front-end rebuild lol. You might be better off getting new knuckles and the late model hubs as mentioned earlier. I did and got them off ebay for like $50 ea shipped for the knuckles the hubs I found for $95 each for temkins. This way you can mod them off the truck and still drive it. I haven't installed yet cause I'm saving for front-end parts myself. Here is how it looks right now.

Do you happen to have a part number for these spindles and wheel bearings? Thank you.
