3.9 lbs for this caliper, down from 8.5 lbs (roughly) stock caliper. Me wikey vewy much!

 

so has anyone done wilwood fronts yet? I'd really like to pick up the kit as I'm changing up everything else, but would like confirmation that it really is plug and play.

 

I installed a set about 2 years ago. They were a snap, and have worked great since! I say go for it.

 

I'm a complete noob with brakes and I put these on with no problems, directly bolts on, no other parts required save for some brake fluid to bleed the system.

 

Great....something to look forward to when my rotors go bad.

 

best news I have heard, thanks for the affirmation.

 

Just a couple cents worth,, I don't use the drilled rotors even on my track cars only the slotted ones, seen too many drilled rotors break. Brembo makes ones that hold up pretty well but the gain is only there at the last 10th so for a street car no way..

 

Mouth drops!

And they are beautiful too.

Still....4.5lbs drop in weight = Dayum!


How much do your rotors weigh vs stock? It's not in your weight list link.

 

Do these fit fit the stock FIT 16's?

 

The rotors are almost the same in weight, just slightly less because of the drilling and slots.

And these should fit 16 because they fit MOST 15s. I'm running the Integra LS mesh wheel with no issue and it's 15".

The only wheel I've heard these won't work with is the higher offset 15" enkei rpf1. The lower offset 35mm does work so I've read.

 

anybody using this brake set ?
is it good

 

They do fit the stock 16's (2009 Fit Sport) but the clearance is crazy tight. Like a 2mm gap.

 

Which Wilwoods are you talking about? The ones that use OEM rotors or the 12" upsize/upgrade kit?

 

The ones that use the oem sized rotors.

 

Damn...barely clear the 16" sport wheels huh...Definitely better measure my spacing with my 15" gram light 57dr's...would hate to order and they not fit. They do say "some" 15's will fit.

 

The clearance issue is between the spokes and the caliper, not between the outer ring of the rim and the caliper. I bet your gram lights will fit. You'll definitely want to measure though just in case.

 

Which ones are those?
