I think I'm going to do mine red as well, but yellow would be cool too.

Man I'm going to paint my calipers red!! Going to look good behind my Trailboss wheels. These might actually get installed quicker than the other ones.

You have the right wheels too....OEM very cool.
And pad changes are like 10 mins....Pull the pins, remove and replace.

Trailbosses have black faces...LOL
I'm not sure if mine should be all black though, what do you and your white tahoe think?

A caliper with a face gives you just about any color option or covering option.

ZR1 candy blue would come out cool too.

Are you saying that the upgrade will lock up under hard braking and ABS won't work?
or
Are you saying you will run out of brake pedal before the modded brakes reach maximum clamping force?

Do you have any detail on that?
Like threads from other sites describing the problem?
Or YouTube videos?

Just curious as I haven't seen anybody on this site do this mod and there is still alot of activity under the 07+ brake upgrade sticky.

I just need bigger brakes and would prefer an OEM solution as opposed to spending $2K on wilwoods, which I've done before.
My current braking zone is sooooooooo long, its almost a safety issue.
I have the 08 tahoe upgraded rotors and power stop calipers and it almost puts me thru the windsheild.I would be intrested in anyone with that upgrade-switching to the 2020 4 piston calipers and the 1/2 inch bigger rotor difference.If you have the stock set up either one would do.I want more feedback before i do anything.Looks like we will get some soon with all the guys doing the upgrade.

You are so in the wrong section.....this section is the Vintage Tahoe section, 00-06. I'm notifying the moderators....LOL.
You just want to be the big fish in the little pond.....LOL...Especially with the police wagon.
