Hi also looking to improve braking. Will be looking into the Wilwood and Brembos. Surprised they were that much for some reason. Looking for new wheels as well. Have to figure out what works with the bigger brakes.
Wilwoods are about $4k; Brembos are more like $6-8k.

I think the stock pads in my 17 denali are horrible, going to try some new pads and see if the braking is better.

HI - Just installed the GMC (GM) Brembo kit this past weekend. Easy install, and much, much, much better stopping over stock 14" rotors and calipers. I also added braided lines (Not included in the GM kit)

Here are some photos

Just installed the Brembo GMC kit on my Denali. Very easy except for getting copper washer off of brake line bolt. Just breaking them in, so I haven’t tried any hard stops. Shop around, you can find this kit for just over 2k. Tried finding a Denali with this option back in May when I bought my 18 but none were available. Option was around 2800 so it was more economical to add them myself. I still have old rotors and calipers as well.
