Wilwood Red Superlite Front Brake Kit, SRP Rotors and Hubs for Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser/Delta 88/Omega, Pontiac Bonneville/Catalina/Firebird/Phoenix/Parisienne, Buick Estate Wagon/LeSabre/Skylark, Chevrolet Camaro/Caprice/Impala/Nova (1979–1990)

Red six-piston Superlite calipers pair with drilled/slotted 12.88-inch rotors in this Wilwood front conversion. Replacement hubs, bearings and BP-10 pads are included for the documented later GM spindle family. The package requires the correct original upright and the machining described for the bracket installation. 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

Identify the actual factory disc spindle from the individual application and DS871 before ordering this later-GM package. The original rotor option is a useful check on upright identity, particularly after prior brake work. A qualified machinist must prepare the specified bracket holes and trim the interfering caliper ears before assembly. Inspect bearing fits and the hub mounting faces, then establish rotor and caliper alignment. Allow for the published outward wheel movement when choosing offset and tire width, and verify the hub's five-lug pattern. Hydraulic hoses are additional; test their routing with the steering and suspension at their travel limits. A proposed wheel needs the complete conditional 17-inch profile behind its spokes, not just room for the ring's diameter.

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