Brembo 97-04 Corvette C5 Rear GT BBK 4 Piston Cast 345x28 2pc Rotor Drilled-Silver

The 345x28mm, two-piece rotors in this Brembo GT Big Brake Kit are cast from a high-carbon iron alloy, a material chosen for its ability to handle the heat generated during hard braking. This kit is specifically designed for the rear of the 1997-2004 Chevrolet Corvette C5, offering a significant upgrade over the factory braking system. The four-piston calipers are forged from aluminum, which helps reduce unsprung weight while providing a solid foundation for consistent stopping power.

This kit includes everything you need to transform your Corvette's rear braking performance. The calipers feature a silver finish and are drilled with slots to help dissipate heat and gasses, keeping the pads biting effectively even under demanding conditions. The two-piece rotor design allows for better thermal management, as the aluminum hat can expand and contract independently of the iron braking surface. This not only helps prevent warping but also makes rotor replacement easier down the line. Brembo is well-known for its braking systems, and this GT kit is a popular choice for C5 owners looking to improve their car's stopping capability for track days or spirited driving.

When installing this kit, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. You'll want to ensure proper bedding-in procedures are followed for optimal performance and longevity of the pads and rotors. This kit is a substantial upgrade, and it's recommended to consider matching the rear brake improvements with front-end upgrades to maintain a balanced braking bias.
