Default Re: Camaro 4 Piston Brembo kit

When I bought my Black Rose ZR 9 years ago, it came w Brembos that were radially mounted. They worked under 17” wheels. I swapped them out when I went to 18” wheels and the front Z06 calipers. As I understand it this was a set made up of one off parts by DRM.

If it used 2-piece Brembo discs, then it was likely an off-the-shelf system from Brembo. There used to be a system with 2-piece floating 332x32mm discs using calipers similar to those I pictured offered by Brembo, but it was discontinued many years ago. That system was meant for 17" wheels.

I was told it was a mix and match of parts.

YEs it did, the hats were thicker and pushed out the wheels.. I bought the system from Dominic, then sold it in favor of the Wilwood.. I do have another set of Brembo Calipers of the same type as the ones Dominic and I had

The one that Brembo did didn't push out the wheels, the hats were regular thickness. So it does sound like something they put together themselves.
