    Rear Brakes

    Hi everyone
    I just bought the 8.8 diff and spindle setup from Fortes for the 2015+ Mustang GT IRS set up. What are my brake options?

    1. OEM 2015+ rear brakes. Mount the caliper in he stock location on the knuckle if using 18”+ wheels, or use FFR’s caliper relocation brackets to tuck it in slightly if using <18” wheels.

    2. Wilwood brakes as offered by FFR. Dynapro series main caliper and MC4 secondary parking brake caliper. You’d want to get the front Wilwood kit from FFR so they match both looks and power front/rear.

    3. Custom brake setup from Wilwood, Brembo, AP Racing, Stoptech, etc. High dollar stuff and only needed if spending plenty of time on track.

    Thanks Logan,

    I’m not running the Wilwood brakes in the front right now so I’ll just stick with the stock GT brakes in the rear.

    I have 4 and 6 piston Wilwood kits for front and rear that will clear 15" or 17" and larger wheels. These kits are not available elsewhere.
