Performance Upgrade
- Fixed Caliper Design: Eliminates flex and provides consistent pad-to-disc contact across all pistons, unlike factory sliding calipers
- Differential Bore Pistons: Progressively sized pistons distribute clamping force evenly, eliminating tapered pad wear
- Increased Disc Diameter: Larger swept area dramatically improves heat dissipation and braking torque
- Reduced Unsprung Weight: Lightweight aluminum construction improves suspension response and handling
