NMAv Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 I know there are some limits on what wheels you can run with the Shelby Extreme brakes. Does anyone know what the limits on for the Wilwoods? I've got a 2011 with the performance package - 19s front, 20s rear and I'm wondering if I will need to change out my wheels or if the Wilwoods will work with this combo. I do not see a Wilwood template on the SPP site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey McCash 50962 Posted June 3, 2013 Report Share Posted June 3, 2013 I did this conversion on my 2012 GT500 with the Pperformance Package. You do not need to change your wheels. The front calipers have a bit more clearance than the stock Brembos and the rears are fine. You must disassemble and reassemble the rear axles to complete conversion. The rear sway bar may need the ends slightly shaved for extra clearance from the rear rotors. The extra effort is most definitely worth it. I have pics for you if needed.

NMAv Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 Do they make a big difference in stopping? Look nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey McCash 50962 Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Sorry posting late...was out of town. There is a noticeable difference in stopping performance. There is no brake . very happy with the conversion.squealing and dust is virtually eliminated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
