Wilwood Disc Brakes Expands Chevy Impala Fitment With Larger Front Brake Hub Kits

Wilwood has engineered two new larger front brake kits to expand the options for 1965-70 Chevy Impala. The new big brake hub kits use 12.88” and 14.00” rotors to fit most 17” and 18” wheels, adding to the existing kits available for 1959-70 Impala in 11.00” and 12.19”.

The new complete bolt-on performance brake kits are designed to fit front OE Impala drum or disc spindles using Wilwood’s competition-proven radial mount Superlite 6R (FNSL6R) or Aerolite 6 (AERO6) six piston calipers. Both caliper models are rigid, forged aluminum featuring one-piece stainless steel pistons housed in Type III hard anodized bodies and high-temperature seals. Colors offered are Competition Red or Gloss Black powder coat, and 24 optional color choices (additional charges apply).

High-performance Spec37 iron alloy rotors are E-coated and available in GTB slotted or SRP drilled and slotted faces with 48 or 72 directional curved vanes. Forged GT aluminum hats provide strength with less weight, and machined billet hubs with screw-on aluminum caps will mount directly to OE spindles. Wilwood’s BP-10 SmartPad street performance brake pads offer smooth and consistent response with longer wear (other compounds available).

MSRP: starts at $2,316.15
