Big improvement for braking system

Cons
  • Good but not great

Pulsing brakes in brake kits

Only a few days after installation the brakes began to pulse when stopped. The rotors are probably warped. Very disappointed.

Pros
  • Z36 carbon fiber ceramic formula delivers the exceptional braking performance your truck or 4WD needs
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised

1997 C1500 Silverado

I installed these brakes on my 1997 C1500 Silverado and they fit and work great! The information on the manufacturer's website was very helpful.

Pros
  • Dust-free braking performance.
Cons
  • Available in white only

Part sizing mismatch and poor tolerances

Three of the four caliper bolts were the right size and the fourth required a smaller socket head for tightening/loosening. Also, after assembly, the rotor was in physical contact with the caliper (near the top of the caliper facing the rotor) and after I rode it, the rotor went through a rut in the caliper. I probably shouldn't have driven it, but I was in a bind. It seems to have a clear path now that it's no longer in contact, but it has eaten away at the powder coating and left a lot of…

Pros
  • Perforated and slotted washers keep brakes cool in even the most extreme conditions
Cons
  • So far so good
