I have decided to let go of my brembo brakes I’m going to put skinny’s on the front of the GT500! I do a lot of street stuff with the car not so much track. What is the best brake kit to save weight stop and fit the 17s!

I run 14” 6-piston Wildwood’s and 18x5s to give a better balance of weight loss, braking performance and looks.
In full street trim which is exactly how I race it, it’s a heavy 3800# and over 4000# with me, so I didn’t want to give up too much on the brakes. I stop from 155-160mph at the track and a bit higher on occasion on the street.
I saved over 20# per front side, almost 50# off the front total. I’ll take that balance over white knuckles and ugly :)

^^^^^^what size wheel are you running? Never mind, I saw the 18x5
Do you still have the part numbers for that set up?
