Didn't think the PPV brakes were significantly bigger that standard. Better than Brembos on the SRT8? Dang, that says a lot. Perhaps the stock PPV pads are softer?

The PPV brakes are bigger than stock but they can't be that much bigger because the stock PPV steel wheels are no larger than 17" or 18".

I did mine over last year, replaced rotors and pads. I don't think there is a difference. I believe they were 13" in front and 13.25" out back. 17" PPV wheels.

Go to gmpartsdirect dot com and give them your VIN #, they will give you part numbers specific to your vin for each part desired.

That's what I figured.
After doing a search when looking for my brakes they didn't differ much if any at all.

Good question, I need to replace mine haha.
I've used K&N for years, while other do not like them. Some people prefer dry other prefer lubricated.
It's just like your oil, regularly change and maintain and you should be good with any new filter you use.
That one looks good

In PPV specs , says : high capacity air filter element , with indicator ..
I stoped using K&N many years ago
They work good in army vehicles , not in street cars , stick with good paper filter , and change them when start to look dirty .... my 2 cents :2cents:
