I wonder if you can just buy those rotors……….

What are you going to do with them? Use them as dinner plates? haaha

Stock calipers wont work with those monsters. lol

You guys got me thinking.

I'm wondering if we can swap the brembos from the 2014 ProMasters on our vehicles with little to no modification?

They come with 16 inch rotors and dual pistion brembos front and rear.

I think this might be worth looking into.

Whats a promaster?

My guess is that is a typo. It says it has 16" Brakes with 2 piston Brembo calipers. The calipers shown in the picture are the standard 2 piston sliding type, so not a rigid fixed caliper like performance Brembos. Also it lists the wheel size as 16x6, impossible to fit a 16" brake rotor and caliper under a 16" wheel. To run 16" disks/caliper it would be a minimum of 18" if not 19" wheels. From the pictures it looks like they use the standard brakes about the same size as the Ram, but I might be wrong.

Yeah, it sure seems like it that's the case

Funny it also says Brembo too. Wonder what that person was thinking when they were typing it.. LOL... Some Mopar as 16" brakes coming out soon?

I apologize for the poorly written article. I assure you they have 16 inch rotors with brembos.
