Could you include the necessary spacers for people with OE 19" sport wheels?

Looks good! I think this will be my next mod for sure. I'd like to add SS brake lines as well. Would I need the ones for the G37S or the M45? Do you sell the SS lines as well?

Thanks!

Yes we carry everything needed for this kit. You will have to use the G lines as they come with the shorter banjo bolts necessary to use on the sport caliper.

Contemplating this upgrade, and have aftermarket wheels that have similar offset as 19 sport OEM wheels, I believe +50 offset,
I have not used a template or test fitted the wheels with a G37 yet, but have heard, regardless, may need spacers. Is that necessary for the spacers due to the large size of the calipers?
Is spacers detrimental for your car in any way, performance, handling?

With those offsets spacers will be a must. Spacers have been used for years in the after market world. Get a name brand and have no worries, H&R is a good start. I would recommend at least a 15mm bolt on spacer.

For those who have had the upgrade, what was the difference to the braking feel and stopping power?
The dealer always gives me a G37 sedan as a loaner for svc appointments, and those brakes are awesome!

The brake upgrade is without a doubt a noticeable difference... I have these on my G35 Sedan and I can compare them to the G37 Sedan we also own that has non sport brakes.
