Wilwood Brakes

Wilwood Brakes — Premium Disc Brake Kits, Calipers & Rotors for Street & Race

Wilwood Engineering has been manufacturing high-performance disc brake systems since 1977, building one of the most comprehensive brake product lineups in the performance aftermarket through decades of racing development and application engineering. From complete disc brake conversion kits for classic muscle cars to multi-piston racing calipers for professional road course and drag race applications, Wilwood produces brake systems that deliver the stopping power, fade resistance, and pedal feel that performance driving demands — engineered and manufactured in Camarillo, California.

Complete Disc Brake Kits

Wilwood's complete disc brake kits are the most popular entry point into the Wilwood lineup, providing everything needed for a complete front, rear, or four-wheel disc brake upgrade in a single purchase. Kits include Wilwood calipers, rotors, brackets, brake pads, and all required hardware for a complete installation on supported applications. Application-specific kits are engineered for correct caliper mounting geometry, correct rotor diameter and thickness, and correct brake bias for each supported vehicle platform.

Disc brake conversion kits for classic GM, Ford, and Mopar platforms replace factory drum brake assemblies with modern disc brake systems that deliver dramatically improved stopping power, better heat dissipation, and more consistent pedal feel under repeated hard braking. Four-wheel disc conversion kits provide a complete brake system upgrade for classic vehicles where factory rear drum brakes are the primary braking limitation.

Calipers

Wilwood produces one of the broadest caliper lineups in the performance aftermarket, covering single-piston, twin-piston, four-piston, and six-piston designs in aluminum and iron construction for street, road course, and drag race applications. Forged aluminum calipers reduce unsprung weight compared to cast iron alternatives while providing the structural rigidity needed for consistent brake performance under the high clamping loads of performance braking.

The Dynalite, Superlite, and Forged Narrow Superlite series are among the most popular Wilwood calipers for street and road course applications, providing a balance of light weight, high clamping force, and correct pad area for the heat load of each application. Drag race calipers are engineered for the specific demands of straight-line braking — high initial bite, consistent release, and minimal heat soak between runs.

Rotors

Wilwood produces slotted, drilled, and combination rotors in standard and lightweight configurations for different performance requirements. Slotted rotors improve pad degassing and provide a consistent wiping action that maintains a clean pad surface for consistent bite. Drilled rotors reduce rotor weight and improve heat dissipation. Wilwood's GT slotted rotors are the most popular street and road course rotor in the lineup, providing the performance benefits of slotting without the stress concentration of drilled holes that can cause cracking under sustained high-heat track use.

Lightweight rotors reduce unsprung and rotating mass for improved suspension response and reduced gyroscopic effect — a meaningful performance advantage on road course and autocross applications where the wheel and tire assembly's rotational inertia affects handling response through direction changes.

Master Cylinders & Proportioning Valves

Wilwood produces tandem and dual master cylinders for street and race applications, with bore sizes available in fine increments to allow precise tuning of brake pedal effort and system pressure. Correct master cylinder bore size selection is critical for correct pedal feel and correct brake system pressure — a bore that is too large produces a low, spongy pedal, while a bore that is too small produces excessive pedal effort. Wilwood's adjustable proportioning valves allow front-to-rear brake bias adjustment for different vehicle weights, load conditions, and driving applications.

Common Applications

Wilwood brake products cover classic GM A-body, F-body, and full-size platforms, classic Ford Mustang and truck platforms, Mopar B-body and E-body, GM LS-swapped vehicles, and a range of modern domestic and import performance vehicles. Racing applications include SCCA, NASA, IMSA, NHRA, and IHRA sanctioned competition across road course, drag race, and oval track disciplines.

USA Manufacturing

Every Wilwood product is designed and manufactured in Camarillo, California, with in-house CNC machining, casting, and quality control that ensures dimensional accuracy and material quality consistent with professional racing requirements. Wilwood's USA manufacturing is the foundation of the brand's quality reputation and the reason professional racing teams specify Wilwood brake ...
