Wilwood Front Superlite 6R Brake Kit for Honda Civic (2006–2015)/CR-Z (2011–2015), Black Calipers and 12.88-Inch GT Rotors

This black Wilwood front kit replaces the specified Honda Civic and CR-Z brakes with six-piston Superlite calipers and 12.88-inch GT slotted rotors. The rings bolt to separate hats on the original hubs, and BP-10 pads are supplied. Application selection includes the Honda trim and production-year details rather than a general promise of Civic interchangeability. Wilwood Engineering was founded by Bill Wood in 1977 and is based in Camarillo, California. The company designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings, and brake lines. Its product range serves motorsport, street-performance, and specialized applications, with individual components selected to match the requirements of the complete brake system.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check the individual Civic and CR-Z rows, especially the Si, Hybrid and transmission-related entries. DS819 describes a different hose-bracket arrangement on 2012-and-later Civics, where the original line/ABS bracket is retained and its hole may require drilling for the new fitting. Select the appropriate Honda hose kit separately. Inspect front hub registers and compare the wheel with the conditional 17-inch profile before installing the hats and radial caliper brackets.

Check the individual year, model, submodel and equipment conditions in the fitment table below before ordering.
