    No, you need spacers with the stock wheels.

    I have VMR 710 which have plenty of clearance

    Another question. For the number you have listed as caliper bolt (P/N 18041878), has that been verified? I show that as being the wheel stud. I show the caliper to knuckle bolts as being 18060356.
    Updated part number, thanks!

    Got the lines and bleeders in stock.

    Do you know for sure if the 1st Gen CTS-V pads will work with the GXP/Camaro rotors? I know the calipers as the same as the GXP but I'm not so sure about the pads.
    Don't want you to order something and have it be incorrect.

    EDIT: I should have said:

    1st Gen CTS-V uses the same front pads as G8 GXP. Newer Camaro pads are compatible also.

    Yup I didn't even pay attention to that part number.
    I would use a good aftermarket pad or use the 19241441 AC Delco ceramic pad - $51.54

    I'm not sure what the difference between the 18041878 caliper bolt and 18060356 caliper bolt is, but this is what I see:

    The Front CTS-V caliper assy shows the 89047726 and 89047727 calipers used on the DN69 model, which is the CTS-V:
    http://www.compnine.com/index.php?u=...04&grouptype=B


    In this graphic, is shows the caliper bolts as item #28, part number 18041878 for D29 and 18022052 for DW29:
    http://www.compnine.com/index.php?u=...06&grouptype=B


    In this graphic, is shows the caliper bolts as item #37, part number 18060356 but lists it for the D69 not the DN69. It also shows item #36, part number 18041878, as a stud but lists it for model DN69. This is NOT a stud bolt.
    http://www.compnine.com/index.php?u=...06&grouptype=B


    I used the 18041878 bolts, which it lists as a M12x1.75x55. The 18060356 part number, I don't know what the specs on the bolt are, as it doesn't list them.

    The 11515778 shows M12x1.75x45
    The 92139080 shows M12x1.75x44

    The 18041878 has a longer "under head length" of 10mm and 11mm than the 11515778 and 92139080 bolts, respectively. I guess the Cadillac knuckle must be thicker than the G8/GXP knuckle?

    Not sure if I need to swap my bolts out or not. I might pull one out and check.
