Wilwood does, you just have to build a truck to put them on. You need 16" rotors to stop 24" rims with 44" tires I suppose.

Truck looks good, I wonder who will have theirs done first you or me. We have a Feb 1st upholstry date.

I don't want to hijack this thread, but yes Wilwood sells them, I need to have custom hats made since I'm converting to 5lug, but I love the look of big brakes filling up a wheel, 20x8.5 up front and 20x15 out back, the rears will be 14 4pistion fronts 16 6piston.

Back on track, whats next?

Centers were sanded with 180, then finished up with Red Scotch Brite

After that they were sprayed with Self Etching Primer and then sprayed with base coat clear coat.

BTW - the clear is a Satin Clear not a gloss
