About this part

Product Details

Wilwood is well-known for making high-performance braking components, and this big brake kit is a prime example of their work. This kit centers around their Forged 6 Piston Superlite calipers, paired with GT 48 vane Spec37 rotors that are both drilled and slotted. It's designed to give your vehicle a significant upgrade in stopping power and heat dissipation, crucial for any performance-oriented build or for vehicles that see heavy use. The calipers themselves are forged for strength, and the Superlite designation means they are built to be lightweight yet robust.

The Spec37 rotors are made from a proprietary iron alloy known for its durability and ability to withstand high temperatures without warping. The 48 vane design helps to move air through the rotor, aiding in cooling, while the combination of drilling and slotting helps to clear out brake dust and gases. This keeps the pad surface clean and ensures consistent braking performance, especially during repeated hard stops. The 12.88-inch diameter and 1.25-inch thickness are substantial, providing a larger surface area for the pads to grip and more thermal mass to absorb heat.

This kit includes the calipers, rotors, and likely the necessary hardware to get them installed, though it's always a good idea to check the included components list. Upgrading to a big brake kit like this is a major step in improving your vehicle's overall performance and safety. It's a well-built system that offers a noticeable difference in braking feel and capability, especially when pushing your vehicle hard.
