Brembo 96-05 550/575 (Excl. GTC) Rear GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 380x28 2pc Rotor Slotted Type-3-Red

If you're looking to significantly upgrade the stopping power on your 1996-2005 BMW 550/575 (excluding GTC models), this Brembo GT Big Brake Kit for the rear is a serious consideration. This kit is designed to replace your factory rear brake components with a much more robust setup, featuring larger rotors and powerful calipers that can handle more heat and provide more consistent braking, especially during spirited driving or track use.

At the heart of this kit are the 4-piston GT calipers, known for their solid construction and ability to apply even pressure across the braking surface. They clamp down on impressive 380x28mm two-piece rotors. These rotors are slotted with Brembo's Type-3 pattern, which helps to dissipate heat and gasses more effectively than a standard solid or drilled rotor, keeping your brakes cooler and reducing the chance of fade. The two-piece design also helps manage heat expansion and can reduce weight compared to a solid one-piece rotor of the same size. The calipers come finished in a striking red color, adding a visual upgrade to match the performance gains.

This kit includes everything you need to get these high-performance brakes installed, such as the calipers, rotors, caliper mounting brackets, and brake lines specifically designed for this application. While this is a comprehensive kit, it's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation guide for specific torque values and any other recommended procedures to ensure a proper and safe installation. Upgrading to a big brake kit like this can make a notable difference in your vehicle's braking feel and performance.
