2010 SSV Redline Series 2
2004 07 Cadillac cts V 4 Piston Brembo Front Rear Calipers w Brake Pads Pins | eBay

Give this one a read megzee. I was about to get these but after currency conversion it comes out expensive.


Also, after forgetting about my offset of my wheels I now have concerns the above brakes won't fit under. Is there a minimum or recommended offset for these brakes? Couldn't find anything googling. I'm currently sitting on Lexani lss-10 20 inch.
Thats reasonable price for calipers and pads all round . I have a redline so i had no issues with the wheels clearing .. Basicly you will need to get redline rims or Hsv ones .. As for offset i wouldnt have a clue

I'm tempted to just get the brakes and hope they will fit. If they don't then look for new wheels.

So I've finally recieved all the parts I should need for now. 4 piston CTS-V front and rear calipers, DBA slotted rotors, Safebrake lines. Gonna take a wheel off and see if I can find out how the caliper sits with my current wheels. Don't think they will fit the fronts but the rears should be ok.

You need to trim the dust shields on the rears to get them to fit.

As I was half expecting, the brakes don't clear my wheels so now to buy new ones.

I'm thinking the VF SSV Redline wheels. They look pretty good and from the pics I've seen they will clear.

All Redline wheels (VE-VF) will clear. In fact I think the chrome VE Redline's where used on the Caddy CTS-V back in the day.

Yeah that's what I'm seeing. I'm thinking black on black with the new wheels. All the silver inside the wheels will hopefully even out the colours.
