Brembo Caliper fitment question

Magnetar · 01-12-2026, 07:38 PM

Greetings all. I have a 2017 SS that I recently upgraded with a set of MRRs M017 wheels in gunmetal gray. I'd like to change my calipers (Brembo 4 piston all round) to factory red ones but it seems like most of what I'm finding is for 2019 and newer cars.

Has anyone used the '19 and up calipers on a '16-'18 car? Is there a major difference in where the mounting holes in the calipers line up or anything else? Thanks in advance.

Are you wanting to change calipers for performance or for looks?

I believe the Red Caliper option wasn't available on the SS until 2019 and later models... You can always paint your existing calipers, far less expensive than replacing them...

This would be cosmetic as I hadn't planned on upgrading to something like the 6 piston front calipers.
Currently I don't have a good option to work on my calipers. I know something like painting my existing set would be a lot cheaper. I may look into a used set that could be blasted/powder coated by a local business.
