Does anyone using Wilwood 16" brakes with OEM 20" wheels

[Slow5.0]

I need to know if OEM 20" wheels will clear Willwood 16" front brakes. So did anyone try them and will they clear. I know on willwood website it says 20" wheels will clear but not all wheels are tha same. Thanks

Not sure we need 2 threads asking the same question..

I dont have an answer to your question, but I think it would come down to the dish of the wheel. If they are deep dished, then I could see a problem. But if they are flat faced, which most are, then you should be in the clear.

But as you say, not all rims are built the same. Some may have a deeper lip on the rim face, so that even thou they are flat faced, the lip brings it in deeper.

Wilwood are a great product and priced better. They don't have the o ring at the base of the piston to keep debris out like Brembo does. In fine print that there's a rebuild schedule. Most don't follow it because their vehicles aren't tracked.

Where I'm going with this is that GM is now fitting 6 piston Brembo brakes on 2021+ PPV/SSV and have 16" rotors front and back. It may be worth it to order a caliper and rotor from Rock Auto to test fitment on your truck.

I just went another route and got this option for our 09 Esky. It was sourced piece by piece and $1442.74 total to the door. It's essentially a clone of the 5JL Brembo BBK upgrade GM made for 15-20 full size GM trucks/SUV.
