The Wilwood Forged Superlite 6R Front Brake Kit (Race) is a high-performance braking system designed for competitive road racing applications. Featuring FSL6R six-piston calipers with Thermlock pistons, this kit delivers exceptional stopping power and heat management. The 12.88-inch directional vane GT slotted rotors are dynamically mounted to forged aluminum hats, enhancing rotor rigidity and reducing unsprung weight. Radial mount brackets secure the calipers directly to the original equipment (OE) mounting points without requiring modifications. Engineered for durability and consistent performance, this kit is optimized for use with 17-inch or larger wheels, providing championship-proven braking capability in demanding racing environments.

This brake kit is specifically designed for vehicles equipped with OE front brake mounting locations, making it a direct bolt-on upgrade for compatible race cars. While the product description highlights its suitability for unrestricted class road racing, it is ideal for drivers seeking maximum performance on the track. The kit includes all necessary components for installation, including calipers, rotors, and mounting hardware. Its application is focused on high-intensity racing scenarios, delivering reliable and repeatable braking performance under extreme conditions. Compatibility notes emphasize fitment with vehicles that can accommodate 12.88-inch rotors and 17-inch or larger wheels.
