Just a though to get even MORE stopping power from these Gen III brakes. I know you’ll have to make out the calipers but other than that. Would there be any other issues? I’d like to have 15”or 16” in the front and move the fronts to the back.

I notice a Sebring, Tommy Archer had HUGE rotors on the front of the CC. They looked like 16”-17” with Baer 6 pistons calipers.

One of the first things I noticed about my new 06 coupe compared to my gen one was the super feel to the brakes on the 06. Much much better. Personally I don't see any need for improvment. Just my opinion, of course. John

Who are you kidding. We own Vipers. More is more. :D

I just love super brakes. The more the better. IMO

Don't let the large diameter hat fool you, they make the rotor look larger then they actual are. Those look to be around 350mm to 380mm diameter. Have you ever had an issue with brake fade on your GEN3? Even on a track the GEN3 brakes are AWESOME, you can improve them with a better two piece rotor with air ducts. The front and rear GEN3 rotors are the same diameter and thickness, only the off-set is different.

I've yet to track the SRT/10. I had "braking over kill" in my GTS and loved it on the track, but the Baer 6 piston track pads squealed like a b!)@# on the street. As far as mods, I love seeing the huge rotors though the wheels.

I always laugh when I see some kid with 24" wheels on his honda and little 11'' rotors.
