Description
Brembo developed this configuration around BMW 2011–2016 528i, pairing the correct axle-specific hardware with the braking architecture needed for more demanding use.
Why this setup makes sense
For a performance-oriented chassis where improved heat capacity, pedal consistency, and repeatable braking are valuable during demanding street or track driving, consistent pedal behavior and thermal reserve can matter as much as outright stopping distance. This kit is positioned around those demands rather than simple cosmetic upgrading.
Selectable variants
- Rotor Style: Type 3 Slotted, Type 1 Slotted, Drilled
- Caliper Finish: Yellow, Silver, Red, Black
Where both drilled and slotted versions are offered, the rotor selection changes the friction-ring treatment while retaining the application-specific package. Choose the version that best matches your intended duty cycle and preferred setup.
What this package is
Brembo’s GT line is aimed at enthusiasts who want a substantial step beyond the factory braking system without giving up everyday usability.
- Axle: Rear
- Brembo family: GT
- Catalog specification: 4-Piston Cast; 345x28mm 2-Piece
Who benefits most
Best suited to enthusiastic street cars, canyon use, autocross, and HPDE builds that need more repeatable braking without moving to a race-only setup. As a rear kit, it is especially useful when the goal is to complement a front brake upgrade and preserve balanced brake behavior across the chassis.
