I guess I’m not sure if I go with something different do I need to also replace the spindles?
I have 18” wheels, so clearance won’t be a problem. The current wheels actually stick out about 1/4” too much- probably my fault when ordering the custom wheels. So if these are Granada brakes, if I switch to an Mii setup, it will tuck the wheels in a bit? I’ll have to make sure I have the clearance on the inside. Worst case scenario I guess would be spacers to set them back out.

So any Mii brake kit should work? Like this:

Or do I need new spindles as well?

Seriously- thank you guys for your help. I’m so close to being able to drive this car- FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER. I’m so excited.

I think that Dynalite kit is the same one I have. Great stoppers.

Do yourself a favour and install speed bleeders at the same time. You'll need two pair for those Dynalites. Install them on the upper bleed screws. Leave the lower bleed screws alone. I'm pretty sure they're 1/4 in.-28 thread, but Summit can advise you on the correct size.

Brian: speed bleeders??! That’s an amazing idea. I didn’t know those existed. I will order some for sure, thank you!

I did a full replacement of front (Wilwood Dynalite) and rear brakes (MBM DBK9 kit, GM calipers with integrated parking brakes) on my car and installed speed bleeders all around. I'm now preaching the gospel of speed bleeders. Note: Referred to by some as 'quick bleeders'.
