Monster Brake Rotors!

[Trupiano]

Well the trucks needed new brakes, so I sprang for dimpled and slotted rotors.

With a discount, it was a little more than $500, with free brake pads and a lifetime warranty from warping and cracks... though I don't know how these godzilla-looking-mothers could possibly warp.

These things are massive and weigh 40 lbs a piece! :********:

Paper towel roll for effect, so you can see how big they really are!

Very nice, I've been thinking about upgrading mine to but haven't found any or anyone with a diesel that has went with this style. I'll have to check these out

I've got 35's at the moment, and will be installing 37's in the spring. I could use all the stopping power I can get!

I like em! They look great!

 

[BlkRamRt]

daum! they look gigantic.

good night!!! them things are ridiculous. is there something like that for the 1500's? what about a lighter weight 2 piece rotor?

 

[Trupiano]

They have them for the 1500's. They're much lighter, due to it being a lighter duty truck.

Dang I've only seen that big of a rotor on serice style trucks that haul 30k lbs.

Those look nice!

Glad I found this post.
A few questions, was that price for all 4 corners I assume so because I see three rotors in the one pic.
What is the diameter of those compared to the stock ones and if they are a larger diameter, do you need to change calipers?

The reason I ask, well obviously I'm gonna be looking at pads and rotors likely by spring and I've started looking around.

Those are stock replacement rotors that have been machined.

Ya thanks, I should have looked at his link before I asked the questions.
360mm dia same a stock.

Yeah, they kinda have to be that massive for HD trucks. Good find, Trup!

 

[Trupiano]

$500 was for all 4 rotors. Couldn't fit all 4 in the picture on the freezer.

Holy BALLZ!?! I LOVE big brakes. Power? Expected. Awesome braking impresses every time.
NICE pickup!

 

[johnnysart]

those are big. You keeping the stock calipers?

 

[Trupiano]

Yeah I guess they're stock size, so calipers will stay, but **** they look like monsters!

pads and slotted rotors are a significant upgrade for sure. i had HAWK Pads w/ DBS Slotted Rotors on my 08' Mazda Speed3. You should notice a significant improvement in Bite and reduced fade. Stainless Lines are also a huge upgrade !

braking is a mod that is frequently forgotten about, but so important especially with more power and rolling mass. Great Choice !!!!

 

[Trupiano]

Thank you sir! Brake lines would be awesome to upgrade, but that will be a while.
