How are those Wilwood brakes working for you?


I didn't think much of them either until I saw an install using them. I know the Koni shocks are nice, but I think they require partial disassembly to adjust them. At least the old ones that they made for F/J/M did. I've been playing around with these just pulling into a parking lot and adjusting the knobs. Should have put these in years ago.

Honestly they're great. Trouble free. Car stops better and the added benefit of how that hold the pads in place. I could never get the factory sliders quiet for long. The rubber band would always wear and the tangs on the pads would always separate. Pad chatter going over bumps was very annoying. These are nice and quiet.
