If you're looking to upgrade your braking system, the 15" Extreme+ brake kit from Baer Brakes is a solid choice. I've had the chance to put this kit through its paces, and let me tell you, it’s a game changer for my GM truck.

At the heart of this system is the 1-piece Monoblock, 6-piston 6S caliper, which is crafted right in Phoenix, AZ. It’s made from 2618 aluminum, a lightweight yet durable material that really holds up under pressure. The caliper features stainless steel pistons and abutments, which not only enhances durability but also helps with noise suppression. And yes, it’s D.O.T. compliant, so you know it’s built to last against the elements.

The 15" rotor is where things get interesting. It’s a two-piece design that’s slotted, drilled, and zinc plated for that extra layer of protection against rust. Plus, it comes pre-assembled with high-grade stainless hardware, making installation a breeze. I appreciate that all the necessary brackets and hardware are included, so you won’t find yourself scrambling for parts mid-install.

What really stands out to me is the staggered piston design, which minimizes uneven pad wear. This means you get better performance and longevity out of your brake pads, and we all know how costly those can be. The dual seals—dust/weather and pressure—are another nice touch, ensuring that dirt and moisture stay out of your braking system.

This kit fits a wide range of GM vehicles, specifically the 1999-2023 GM 1500 Trucks and 2000-2023 GM 1500 SUVs. So if you own a Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, or even a Cadillac Escalade, you’re in luck. Just make sure you have at least a 19” wheel diameter to accommodate the setup.

Overall, if you’re serious about performance and safety on the road, this Extreme+ brake kit is worth considering. It’s designed to work seamlessly with your OE rear disc brakes, and the performance boost you're going to see is well worth the investment.
