Product details

Plain-face vented rotors and red Dynalite calipers identify this 11-inch Chevrolet front package. The included hubs provide two five-lug wheel patterns, and the four-piston calipers use BP-10 pads with a nominal 14-inch minimum wheel envelope. Wilwood Engineering designs and manufactures disc brake systems and components, including calipers, brake rotors, master cylinders, valves, fittings and brake lines. Bill Wood founded the company in 1977; it is based in Camarillo, California, and serves motorsport, street-performance and specialized applications.

Fitment & Compatibility

For the listed 1955–1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, Nomad, One-Fifty, Two-Ten and Sedan Delivery, plus 1957 Del Ray, with the specified Heidts 2-inch drop, CPP E5557DS or listed Ridetech drop spindles. It will not fit original 1955–1957 Chevrolet spindles. Aluminum hubs and 1/2-20 studs are included; select the matching 5 x 4.50- or 5 x 4.75-inch wheel pattern. Brake hoses and spindles are separate. Match the flexline length and end fittings to the installed suspension. Match the model and aftermarket-spindle entry in the fitment table below. Nominal minimum wheel diameter: 14 in; 355.6 mm. The linked wheel-clearance diagram must confirm barrel and spoke clearance; wheel diameter alone does not guarantee fit.
