If you're looking to beef up your braking game on your 1997-2004 Corvette, this front brake system is the real deal. It features the impressive 6S 6-piston Monoblock caliper, which is mounted to a 14-inch, 2-piece rotor that's not just any rotor—it's slot and drill designed with a zinc plating. This setup isn't just about looks; it’s built to perform. You’ll appreciate the stainless steel brake hoses that come with it, plus the calipers are equipped with D.O.T. compliant dust and weather seals to keep everything running smoothly, no matter the conditions.

Now, let’s talk about the quality. We're using top-notch bearings and NAS high-grade stainless hardware for our pre-assembled rotor. The 6S and 6R R-Spec calipers are Baer’s flagship offering, crafted from a single piece of US-sourced 2618 forged aluminum. That means you’re getting something sturdy and reliable.

Fitment:

  • Designed specifically for 1997-2004 GM C5 Y-Body Spindles - Keep in mind, these won’t fit stock Corvette wheels.

Why go for the Extreme+?

  • You’re getting a US-made forged MonoBlock caliper, which is a big deal in the performance world.
  • It offers a consistent look front and rear—something you won’t find with other manufacturers.
  • Everything you need is included, from hoses to fittings—no need to hunt around for extra parts.
  • The 6061 T-6 billet aluminum hat is anodized black and securely bolted to the rotor.
  • High-grade U281 fine thread stainless hardware with captured nuts means it’s built to last. Plus, the rotor comes pre-assembled, so you can get right to installing it.
  • Also included are 6061-T6 billet machined hubs with quality bearings installed. They come pre-assembled with everything packed in Redline synthetic grease, so you know it’s good to go.

What’s cool about the 6S Extreme+ Caliper?

  • It’s the only 6-piston forged monoblock available for street use.
  • Stainless steel pistons and noise suppression springs mean quieter operation and less wear.
  • Staggered piston sizes help minimize pad wear, which is a nice touch.
  • It uses a common D1247 or DR11 race pad backing plate, shared with many other competition calipers, so you have options when it comes to pads.
  • Dual seals—both dust/weather and pressure—meet D.O.T. specs, so you know they’re up to the task.
  • The caliper can handle rotors from 13.5 to 16 inches, giving you some flexibility.
  • Each caliper comes with a machined logo that’s hand-painted, adding a personal touch.
  • Standard colors for the powder coat finish are red, black, or silver, but you can get custom colors if you want something unique.
  • Available for both front and rear, so you can match the look across your ride.
  • Uses proper banjo style fittings—no pipe threads here, which is a nice detail.
  • Minimum tire size is 18 inches, so make sure to check fitment with the template provided.
  • And don’t forget, this is 100% made in the USA with US-sourced materials!

So if you’re ready to upgrade your braking system with something that’s built tough and designed for your Corvette, the Baer Brakes Brake System is a solid choice. You won’t regret it!
