Brembo 07-13 X5 Front GT BBK 6 Piston Cast 405x34 2pc Rotor Drilled-Red

This Brembo GT Big Brake Kit for the front of your 2007-2013 BMW X5 includes everything you need for a significant upgrade in braking performance. You get a pair of massive 405x34mm two-piece rotors, which are drilled for improved heat dissipation, along with a set of powerful six-piston calipers. This kit is designed to replace your factory braking components and provide a more robust and responsive stopping system.

The two-piece rotor design is a notable advantage, allowing the aluminum hat to expand and contract independently of the iron friction ring. This helps reduce stress and prevent warping, especially under heavy use. The drilled surface on the rotors helps vent gases and heat away from the pad surface, which is crucial for maintaining consistent braking power during spirited driving or repeated hard stops. The six-piston calipers offer increased clamping force over stock, meaning more pressure is applied to the rotors for quicker deceleration. This entire package is built with Brembo's reputation for well-built braking components, aiming to give you more confidence behind the wheel.

When installing a big brake kit like this, it's important to ensure you have adequate clearance for the larger calipers and rotors within your wheels. It's also a good time to consider upgrading your brake fluid to a higher boiling point type to take full advantage of the kit's capabilities. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details on mounting and bleeding the system.
