Brembo 07-13 X5 Rear GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 380x28 2pc Rotor Slotted Type3-Yellow

This Brembo GT Big Brake Kit for the rear of your 2007-2013 BMW X5 includes everything you need to significantly upgrade your braking performance. You get a pair of Brembo 4-piston cast iron calipers, two 380x28mm two-piece slotted rotors, and all the necessary hardware to get them installed. This kit is designed to replace your factory rear brake components with larger, more capable parts, offering improved stopping power and heat management.

The calipers in this kit are a robust 4-piston design, which helps distribute braking force more evenly across the larger 380mm rotor. This means more consistent pedal feel and better heat dissipation compared to smaller, single-piston factory calipers. The two-piece rotor construction, with a 380x28mm braking surface, is a notable feature. The floating design allows the rotor ring to expand and contract independently of the hub, reducing the risk of rotor warping under heavy use. The Type 3 slotted surface on the rotors is engineered to help clear out brake dust and gas buildup, which can otherwise reduce pad contact and braking effectiveness, especially during repeated hard stops.

Installing a big brake kit like this is a significant upgrade for any X5 owner looking for enhanced braking performance, whether for spirited driving or towing. It's important to note that while this kit is designed as a direct replacement for the rear axle, it's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for specific details and torque specifications. Proper bedding-in of the new pads and rotors is also crucial to achieve optimal performance and longevity from this high-performance braking system.
