Product Details

Street Performance Drilled and Slotted Rotor AERO6 Caliper Front Big Brake Kit (140-15705-DR) by Wilwood®. With this kit, you will significantly improve your braking performance. Suitable for all types of custom show and high performance street/strip vehicles this kit is a perfect compliment to wheel, tire, and suspension upgrades. Rotors feature cross drill and slot pattern to provide better outgassing and increased cooling capacity. Caliper eye-catching finishes allow for personalizing your vehicle's style.

Benefits:

Slots provide gas and water dissipation
Slots help to increase pad bite and improve air circulation
Drilled Holes and Slots create an escape route for debris, dust, gases, and water
Slots clean and de-glaze pad surface for optimum pad coefficient of friction
Drilled rotors improve the appearance of your wheels and provide reduced rotor weight
2-Piece rotors offer great weight savings and provide rapid heat dissipation compared to 1-piece rotors
Vented type of rotors offer much faster 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
Fixed calipers create friction from the brake pads on both sides of the rotor at minimum time interval

This Street Performance Drilled and Slotted Brake Kit provides increased levels of strong braking. The complete package includes drilled and slotted rotors, premium brake pads and calipers representing the latest racing technology. The calipers are available in various finishes to reflect your individual style. Originally used for serious competitions because of their advanced cooling capacity, drilled and slotted rotors now became popular in street applications for their pure aesthetic value. Whether you have a daily driver or something ready for the show, this Street Performance Drilled and Slotted Brake Kit is what you need to get optimized braking performance.

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.

The internal vane design of these vented rotors by Wilwood provides excellent heat dissipation during brake cycles. As the wheel spins, the vanes around the edge of the rotor draw air in and pull it through to help cool the rotor. With the extra heat dissipated there will be less brake fade. This rotor design by Wilwood combines the best features of a slotted rotor and cross-drilled rotor allowing your brakes to run cooler and sweep away water and dust. The cross-drilled and slotted rotors improve air circulation and increase brake pad bite, ensuring incredible stopping performance.

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.

It was the best decision!

It was hard to choose a brake kit for my Ford Mustang. I researched many websites and found CARiD. These guys know what customers want. So, choosing was very easy. I chose the Forged Dynalite Pro Series Front Brake Kit. Very good quality and nice look. My dream came true! The lowest price and fast shipping impressed me. It was the best decision to choose CARiD.

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.
