{"product_id":"supercomp-caliper-kit-6","title":"SuperComp Caliper Kit","description":"This sophisticated, bolt-on brake upgrade features larger calipers, rotors, and brake pads compared to the ProComp series, with an increased number of pistons for enhanced performance.\n\nThe SuperComp caliper itself is a marvel of engineering, machined from aircraft-quality billet aluminum. It boasts a differential bore configuration and significantly larger pistons than Ksport's ProComp calipers. Weighing just over 7 lbs each, these calipers include protection grooves for bridge tubes, aluminum pistons, high-temperature seals, and stainless steel brake pad wear plates. The opposed piston design dramatically improves pad wear and caliper rigidity over OEM setups, while stainless steel brake lines prevent expansion under pressure. Each caliper is constructed from a single piece of billet aluminum, ensuring lightweight strength and corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the reinforced carbon steel caliper brackets allow these larger-than-OEM calipers to mount directly onto existing points.\n\nThis kit features Ksport's 2-piece floating disc assembly, which reduces both rotating and unsprung weight. The floating disc design also mitigates thermal stresses from extreme heat, preventing the disc from warping or the braking surface from cupping. The unique slot design on the rotors minimizes braking noise and expels gas and pad debris more efficiently than conventional designs. Rotors are heat-treated and balanced prior to shipment for optimal performance. For street use, SC5 Street pads with a long-lasting, low-dust ceramic compound are recommended, with optimal operating temperatures between 194°F – 1022°F. For track applications, RC1 Race Pads, made from a carbon metallic compound, are designed for maximum stopping power under extreme conditions.\n\nSpecifically, the BKBM100-971SO model is for the BMW X5 E53 (2000-2006). It includes 8-piston calipers with 421mm slotted, 2-piece floating rotors. Ksport offers this kit in standard colors like Orange, Red, Yellow, and Black, with over 20,000 custom upgradeable colors available. The kit comprises replacement calipers, rotors, pads, brake lines, and all necessary hardware. All Ksport big brake kits come with a standard 12-month warranty covering manufacturer defects. Free shipping is available on orders over $600, though oversized items are excluded.","brand":"Ksport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52868437901624,"sku":"BKBM100-971SO","price":5266.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687986146.webp?v=1787914163","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/supercomp-caliper-kit-6","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
