Wilwood vs Brembo

[Blazed]

I always see people on here running Wilwood 16/14 brakes but I never see any Brembo any reasons why?

The Brembo kit is real high quality and double the price for a caliper with the same number of pistons the Wilwood kit has that cost half.
The Wilwood kit is also high quality with 16/14 rotors (almost every other company has 14/14 rotors).

 

[THE YETI]

Brembo has 8 piston fronts. But, they are tiny pistons. Wilwood has 6 pistons and they are larger. I'd rather have 6 large pistons as opposed to 8 small ones. Brembo also runs a 15" rotor, whereas Wilwood is a 16".

Both are great setups, but for the money I'd rather rock the wilwoods, and I do.

Oops, I did the conversion of 380mm to inches in my head and though it was 14 but it is 15 like Robbie said.
But the Brembo GT kit is 4 (rear) and 6 (front) pistons though.

thanks for the input I was just wondering!

but while I have modded in here
modded do you know any salvage yards in the area that would have a newer tahoe or preferably a escalade?

Apparently it's both... 6 piston or 8.

I only know of one but I do not think they part out cars unless they are severely damaged.
What part are you looking for?

Quite a few things actually...
I want the exhaust off of the escalade so I can have the 3.5 piping
third brake light
dl3 mirrors
rear bumper
possibly second row captain chairs
and a front bumper for my mom
ROOF RACKS
