Anybody experienced with Wilwood brakes?

Postby Oranoco on Tue Apr 25, 2006 5:58 pm

Been looking at getting them for the Fes and wondered if anybody has them or has had them?

Price looks appealing and may be a different option to Cossie brakes

Yeah I have the Billet Dynalite 4 pots up front on mine, with 285mm discs (to grow when I go for 16" wheels). I love them, though I think they'd benefit greatly from a bigger master cylinder. My pads have almost worn down now after 4,000 miles (not bad IMO), and Mike Rainbird is finding out what pads can be used in them, as I had Wilwood Race pads imported along with the calipers. Very messy, but work well! I drilled and tapped the calipers out myself, which you would need to do/get done if you go the same route as me.

Rally Design sell brake kits for them, so they might be drilled and tapped already from them. If they are, I'd like to know what thread they tap in!
