8-Piston 356mm Big Brake Kit

This advanced bolt-on upgrade builds upon the Procomp kit's capabilities with larger calipers, rotors, and brake pads, an increased piston count, and standard full-floating rotors for superior self-centering and reduced drag. Construction highlights include one-piece forged calipers crafted from aircraft-grade aluminum for exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. These calipers also feature aluminum pistons that offer enhanced heat management. The kit incorporates CNC-machined carbon steel caliper brackets to ensure direct bolt-on installation to OEM locations. The two-piece floating rotor design allows for slight adjustments, improving self-centering, reducing brake drag, and ensuring more even pad application for optimal performance. Included are Ksport's NAOC Ceramic SC5 Street Pads, which provide excellent braking performance for street and occasional track use, while reducing dust by over 50% and minimizing noise and rotor wear. The operating temperature range for these pads is 194°F - 1022°F. Furthermore, D.O.T. compliant stainless-steel braided brake lines are standard, preventing hose expansion under pressure for a quicker, firmer pedal response compared to stock rubber lines. This kit is offered with either slotted or cross-drilled rotors. Slotted rotors are recommended for track use due to their ability to expel gas and debris more effectively, while cross-drilled rotors are suggested for daily drivers as they tend to run cooler. Ksport Big Brake kits are built to order, with production and delivery typically taking 4-6 weeks. The listed fitment is for Mercedes-Benz SLK models from 2004-2011, including the SLK280 and SLK350 trims.
