{"product_id":"supercomp-front-8-piston-big-brake-kit-1","title":"Supercomp Front 8-Piston Big Brake Kit","description":"The Ksport Supercomp Front Big Brake Kit is engineered to deliver ultimate stopping power for your Mercedes Benz R172 SLK 350. This extreme brake upgrade integrates advanced technology to significantly reduce brake fade and maintain optimal brake pad surface temperature through continuous cooling.\n\nThe kit features an extreme lightweight SuperComp caliper, forged from aircraft-quality billet aluminum, with a differential bore configuration and much larger pistons than standard ProComp calipers. It weighs just over 7lbs and includes protection grooves, aluminum pistons, high-temperature seals, titanium retainer clips, and stainless-steel wear plates. The opposed piston design enhances pad wear and caliper rigidity, while stainless-steel brake lines prevent expansion under pressure. Each caliper requires four brake pads due to its size.\n\nThe SuperComp system includes a 2-piece floating disc assembly designed to reduce rotating and unsprung weight, and prevent thermal stresses from warping the disc. The unique slot design minimizes braking noise and expels gas and pad debris efficiently. Rotors are heat-treated and balanced. This specific kit includes cross-drilled rotors, recommended for daily driven vehicles as they tend to run cooler than slotted rotors.\n\nStandard equipment includes Ksport SC5 Street Pads, which are NAOC ceramic pads offering optimal performance under street and occasional track conditions, with reduced dust and noise compared to race pads. Optional RC5 Race Pads, made of carbon metallic, are available for extreme track use but are not recommended for street driving. The kit also features CNC machined carbon steel caliper brackets for direct bolt-on installation and D.O.T. compliant stainless-steel braided brake lines for improved pedal feel and response. All Ksport big brake kits come with a 12-month limited warranty against manufacturer defects.","brand":"Ksport","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52868572741944,"sku":"BKMD121-971CO","price":5793.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687987997.jpg?v=1787915216","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/supercomp-front-8-piston-big-brake-kit-1","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
