Product Details

Installation

Benefits:

  • Plain rotors ensure quiet operation and offer low dust and long pad life
  • Steel rotors offer great weight savings and provide rapid heat dissipation
  • Multi-piston calipers provide clamping force on both sides of the rotor at the same time and uniformly transfer braking force to the brake pads
  • Caliper pistons are hollow to save weight
  • Aluminum caliper body allows for exceptional light weight (up to 40% of weight savings) and ensures superior corrosion resistance
  • Caliper heat-resistant coating prevent cracking and fading

Wilwood has put great efforts into developing a superior line of drag race brake kits that have become a favorite choice for drag racers thanks to their extreme durability and outstanding stopping power. The Drag Race Plain Brake Kit is engineered to match high requirements of drag racing. The package includes plain face rotors, reliable brake pads and calipers representing the latest racing technology. Wilwood plain face rotors ensure high resistance to thermal deformation with excellent friction and wear characteristics against the pads.

Fixed calipers by Wilwood offer unmatched stopping power. The pistons in fixed calipers are located on both sides of the disc, allowing for evenly distributed clamping force. They apply more squeezing power and apply it more evenly during braking as force is directly applied to both sides. Multi-piston calipers allow for more even braking and, as a result, less pad distortion. The more number of pistons a caliper has, the more clamping force it provides. Thanks to the evenly distributed pressure, these calipers ensure an even wear pattern along the entire length of the brake pad. Usually these calipers have smaller diameter pistons than single-piston calipers. Plain rotors by Wilwood offer the quietest operation out of all rotors as well as low dust and long pad life. They are a budget-friendly option for those drivers who can give up some performance but want to have reliable rotors.

Great Brakes
The calipers and rotors are high quality. No squeaks, no fade. I love how the black calipers look.

08 GMC Sierra Willwood
Winfield at CARiD made it as easy to purchase as the brake system was to install. Willwood has a system that is so precise and directions that are easy to follow. Wes T.

Amazing Stopping Power!
This brake kit was all included along with purchasing the steel braided brake lines, kit was easy to install and yielded incredible results over the stop braking capability. Would highly recommend this to anyone using their srt4 for auto cross or any type of short track racing.

Needs Tweaking
Product looks amazing on my 2014 GMC 1500 especially after a good car wash. Down side the brake pads create excessive brake dust. Not that impressed with the stopping ability especially from a 6 piston caliper.

Good service!
I bought a big brake kit for my Silverado showtruck. These brakes not only work phenomenally but also look incredibly. What I can say about CARiD... Attention to detail and amazing customer service, good price and fast shipping.
