Big 14" Brakes for Big 20 & 22" Wheels

Remove this ad
Are you tired of looking at those rusted puny undersized factory brake rotors behind those big beautiful 20 and 22" Wheel Rims?

Put an end to that ugly undersized look and install a set of large 14" two piece brake rotors and big Brembo 4 piston calipers to bring it all to a stop.

And you can have them made anyway that you like.

I can cross-drill them, gas slot them or leave them plain.

Whichever you choose; I'll heat temper them, double disc grind them, mill balance and nickel plate them to deliver you a perfect custom two piece brake rotor package to provide you with greater clamping power and stopping force.

So if it's time to replace your old worn out brake rotors and you're riding on deuces; step up to a set of custom two piece 14" big brake rotors.

Front Caliper options include the Brembo lug mounted 4 piston brake caliper or the optional Wilwood 6 piston radial mounted front brake caliper as well.

Please feel free to either email or PM me only to see how I might be able to help you with an individualized custom two-piece brake package built to your individual specifications and needs.

I will be happy to discuss options and pricing with you individually and can more than likely design a system to fit most budgets.

Thank you again.

Are you working with TCE or did you buy some of their stock or anything? That picture of the red caliper behind the 5 spoke wheels is from their website, off a Dodge Magnum.

If your kits are cheaper then theirs, Im in.

Let me answer your question very directly so there is no misunderstanding.

1. I am not working with TCE

2. I did not buy any of TCE's stock or anything.

3. As I understand it; TCE no longer makes brakes for the CTS.


I am in business for myself and work solely by myself. I have no partners; only a wife.

All of my brake kits are built solely by me and I utilize parts and hardware components from such companies as Brembo, Wilwood, Coleman, Goodridge etc.

The photo depicted is only meant to show what a 6 piston red Wilwood brake caliper looks like behind a large 22" wheel to give someone and idea of size and perspective.

I offer front two piece big brake kits with either Brembo 4 piston lug mounted calipers or Wilwood 6 piston radial mount calipers.

I offer rear two piece big brake kits that can utilize your existing single piston OEM PBR caliper with an adaptor bracket or with Brembo 4 piston calipers.

If anyone has a genuine interest in a big brake application; they can feel free to PM me or email me at pietro@comcast.net

All of my kits are made to individual order and are custom built. The only inventory that I stock are blank 14" rotors and brake calipers.

I machine my own rotor hats and radial caliper brackets from solid forged 6061-T6 billet aluminum stock. I cross drill and gas slot my own brake rotors from the rotor blanks and do my own cryogenic and heat tempering process.

Re: Big 14" Brakes for Big 20 & 22" Wheels

Well, with all the skeptic talk about you here, you'll understand why I asked, especially when I saw those pictures and recognized them.

That being said, the real reason I asked was because I had purchased a set from TCE for a 300, a 14" front kit, and had great results. Thats why If you were using the same products, Id know Id be buying a brake kit Ive had good luck with before.

Soo...give me an estimate range of what a 14" front brake with 6 piston caliper kit would cost?

I would wait to see what a mod has to say. Others, myself included, haven't been around long enough to know the story. If a mod says he's good to go then he is.
