Wilwood Corvette C5-C6 AERO6 Front Caliper and Bracket Upgrade Kit

Upgrade the front braking system of your 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette C5 or C6 with the Wilwood AERO6 Front Caliper and Bracket Upgrade Kit. Designed to replace the factory front calipers while retaining compatible OE-style Corvette rotors, this kit provides six-piston braking performance without requiring a complete rotor conversion.

Wilwood AERO6 six-piston radial-mount calipers feature a high-strength forged triple-bridge body design developed using race-proven technology. The calipers provide a firm, confident pedal response while remaining matched to the factory master cylinder output and fully compatible with the Corvette's ABS system.

The kit is designed for use with the one-piece 13.38-inch C6 Z51 or 13.98-inch C6 Z06 OE-style front rotors. Wilwood BP-20 dual-sport brake pads provide clean and quiet street operation along with increased friction and high-temperature fade resistance for autocross, track-day, and other performance driving applications.
