Product details
Black four-piston DPC56 calipers replace Corvette C6 Base rear calipers with compatible retained rotors. Verify wheel clearance and hose routing. This package replaces the calipers and pads while retaining the specified original-size rotor arrangement. From Camarillo, California, Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems for motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications. Founded in 1977 by Bill Wood, the company produces calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines. Component selection depends on the requirements of the complete braking system.

Fitment & Compatibility
This rear conversion is for 2005–2013 Chevrolet Corvette C6 Base models. Retain serviceable rotors of the specified factory diameter and thickness; this caliper kit does not supply replacement rotors. Wilwood has checked these calipers with Z06 wheels; that wheel-clearance statement does not make a C6 Z06 brake package compatible. Other factory and aftermarket wheels require the drawing check, and some applications may need spacers. Route the supplied flexlines clear of steering, suspension and rotating parts. Use the fitment table below to confirm the individual model, year, submodel and brake-option restrictions.
