Don't see why they wouldn't fit the redline too.

11.6 in front and 10.6 in rear I think....

I don't think the brakes are in need of an upgrade, but they upgrade kit sure looks a lot nicer especially if you plunk down the extra for the powder coat.

If they're the same brakes that we saw previously, the most certainly do. I can't see why they wouldn't anyway. Looks like the like SSBC(?) brakes. I contacted them about just getting the front calipers, but they said they couldn't sell just the calipers!

25 options for wheels here:

http://www.tirerack.com/upgrade_gara...5&autoModClar=

OR...you can search for rims for:

2003 + Saab
2003 + Chevy
etc...

Pretty much ANY 5 x 110 rim with correct offset (+42?) will work, other offsets (within reason) will work too, but spacers may be necessary.

I've seen DSM rims on 300ZX and vice versa (2000 + Mustang rims also fit on 300Z/DSM) So it all depends on if you've got the right PCD (pitch circle diameter - also known as bolt pattern) and offset. Get those 2 right as well as a suitable width (7 - 8 inches for IRLs) and you're good.

The one thing with brake upgrades (not rotors, but calipers) is clearance from the rim. The 3KGT VR4 calipers are NOT supposed to fit a 1G DSM...but I've seen it done (with spacers and custom brackets) so...it really depends on what you want to do.

Pardon all my references to DSMs and other brands/models...just using experience to demonstrate my point.
