Key Features

The Wilwood AERO6 Front Big Brake Kit combines advanced engineering and high-quality materials to ensure superior braking performance and durability:

• Six-piston black powder-coated calipers for increased clamping force and heat dissipation
• Directional staggered vane slotted rotors measuring 14.25 inches in diameter for maximum cooling and sustained high-heat resistance
• Designed to fit factory disc spindles with radial mount calipers for precise alignment and ease of installation
• Compatible with original equipment master cylinder output and ABS functionality to maintain factory safety features
• Optimized for vehicles with 18-inch or larger wheels to accommodate the larger rotor size
• Slotted rotor design enhances pad bite and helps evacuate brake dust and gases for consistent braking performance
• Durable black powder coat finish on calipers resists corrosion and provides a sleek, aggressive appearance
• Engineered for heavy vehicles and extreme duty applications, including towing and performance driving

Construction & Design

The AERO6 brake kit features calipers constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy, providing a lightweight yet rigid structure that resists flex under heavy braking loads. The six-piston design ensures even pressure distribution across the brake pads, improving pad life and pedal feel. The rotors are crafted from premium-grade iron with directional staggered vane slots to maximize airflow and heat dissipation, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use.

Each component is precision-machined and finished with a durable black powder coat to protect against corrosion and wear, ensuring long-lasting performance and a clean, aggressive look that complements the vehicle’s aesthetics.

Installation & Fitment

This front big brake kit is designed for direct bolt-on installation to factory disc spindles on 2012–2023 Chrysler 300, Dodge Challenger, and Dodge Charger models equipped with 3.6L V6 or 5.7L Hemi engines and rear-wheel drive. No modifications to the master cylinder or ABS system are necessary, preserving factory safety and brake feel. Installation requires wheels with a minimum diameter of 18 inches to clear the larger rotors and calipers.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper torque specifications and brake system bleeding for optimal performance and safety.
