Key Features

The Wilwood AERO6 Front Big Brake Kit incorporates advanced design and materials to maximize braking efficiency and reliability:

• Six-piston radial mount calipers with red powder coat finish for aggressive styling and corrosion resistance
• Directional staggered vane rotors measuring 14.25 inches in diameter for superior heat dissipation
• Slotted rotor design enhances pad bite and helps evacuate gases and debris for consistent braking
• Compatible with factory disc spindles and master cylinder output, maintaining ABS functionality
• Minimum 18-inch wheel diameter required to accommodate the large rotor size
• Engineered for heavy vehicles and extreme duty applications, including towing and performance driving
• Optimized for dual-purpose use on street and track vehicles

Construction & Design

The AERO6 kit features high-quality forged aluminum calipers designed for strength and lightweight performance. The six-piston configuration provides even pressure distribution across the brake pads, improving pad life and braking consistency. The rotors are constructed from premium cast iron with directional staggered vanes to maximize airflow and cooling efficiency, reducing the risk of brake fade during extended use. The slotted surface enhances pad cleaning and improves wet-weather braking performance. The red powder-coated finish on the calipers not only adds a striking visual appeal but also protects against corrosion and wear.

Installation & Fitment

This brake kit is designed for direct bolt-on installation on specified 2005–2011 Chrysler 300/300C, 2005–2011 Dodge Challenger, 2006–2011 Dodge Charger, and 2005–2008 Dodge Magnum models with 2.7L, 3.5L, 3.6L, and 5.7L Hemi engines.
