Upgraded the brakes on my Verano swapped Cruze earlier this year and as the Verano shares those parts with the Diesel Cruze, I figured someone out there might benefit from this information and it might be easier to find than buried at the end of a thread last updated 2 years ago.
4 piston Brembos for an ATS-V (on install left and right are swapped)
2019 Lacrosse 321mm rotors
10mm wheel spacer to clear the 2018 Malibu "snowflake" wheels I have on the car.
The banjo bolts on my car were different than the new calipers and required replacing but I just ordered 2 for an ats-v from the parts store and they worked perfect with the stock lines that were on the car.
I installed longer wheel studs as the malibu wheels are fairly thick in the middle and with the 10mm spacer there wasn't much left to hold on to.
No other modification was needed, even reused the original caliper bolts, could have gotten away with stock studs with different wheels.
The lacrosse rotor is off center from the caliper by about 1mm but causes no interference or issues with brake performance.
I used lacrosse backing plates as well and though they fit the diameter of the rotor they did need to be trimmed to fit the caliper.
You have to remove the wheel bearing to swap that out so I wouldn't bother if you don't need to change studs, just cut the outer lip off the stock backing plate.
Not sure how many miles I've put on the car so far with the new brakes, but I definitely prefer the new setup on the 100-40 decel as compared to the stock brakes.
Pedal feel is a bit hard to describe but not in a bad way, also planning on braided lines at some point.
EDIT: After MP81 brought it up, I realized I forgot to mention the stock Diesel 17" wheels will fit but they will require spacers, probably 1/2" to clear.
Turned out the upgrade saved me some money later as well. Recently, as I was getting ready to sell the Diesel, I found the rotors were trash and I was able to just use the rotors and pads that came off the swap car.
Not sure where to put this post so I figured under Diesel-General was good enough and a mod can relocate it later if its not.
