Will the 09+ CTS-V wheels and front brakes work on the new SS?

I have the V wheels and brakes on my G8 - and if this stuff will bolt on like it did on my Pontiac - you might convince me to start shopping for an SS sooner than later.

Here they are on my G8:

Hi Bonecrrusher

You might like to see my posts here in regards to this issue

I do believe it will work, I'm just awaiting my discs to turn up from the USA.

Personally I think the gxp wheels would look better as they have softer lines.

The GXP wheels are stupid expensive - and hard to come by.

Why would I buy another 2+ grand worth of tires and wheels when I already have these?

Aren't the Brembos on the SS the same as the CTS-V?

Nope, SS = 4 piston; CTS-V(1) = 4; CTS-V(2) = 6 (2009+)

Right on...CTS-V look better in my opinion and I like that they are staggered.

Yup, he's got you above. Also larger Diameter rotors front and rear.

They may look better, but they're only 8" wide vs. the V2's being 19x9 front and 19x9.5 or 19x10 rear.

Wheels will definitely work on the car. Brakes should as well, I don't think rotors changed between SS and GXP, only calipers.
