Will these fit my car?? >> No, the caliper bolt spacing is too narrow for them to fit. Your best bet is to remove your existing calipers and send them to Jim Adney for rebuilding. Unfortunately, your car will be down during this time. If you can find a set of used ones, you could have those rebuilt instead. I hope this helps.
