Which BBK? Wilwood or TRD?
I'm looking to upgrade my front brakes to a BBK. Help me decide between a Wilwood Forged Superlite 4 BBK and a TRD BBK.
Also if I get the Wilwoods should I go for drilled and slotted or just slotted?
Both BBK are around the same price of 1100 bucks. The only difference I'm seeing is that the TRD are 1 piece rotor.
I do have TRD 18'' wheels.
Thanks for the opinions

Just installed my Wilwood kit a few days ago and i love them. The only issue i'm having now is with my brakes being mushy when i first step on them and then they stiffen up. I followed the proper bleeding method and got all air bubbles so i don't understand why its like this

You can always rock out the cheaper OEM relocator option where you get a much bigger rotor and it still uses the stock calipers. Nice big rotor + pad upgrade + SS lines would definitely be noticeable. It's a cheaper option.

Ahh as far as make they are really are all the same minus metal treatments. Choose your caliper with amount of pistons in it. (IE. 4, 6, or lol 8.) Then your brake disc, you can choose different finishes, also you could get slotted which dissipates heat to the entire disc under hard conditions your disc will hold up and not warp. Drilled gets rid of the heat instead of evenly distributing it. Drilled and slotted are a combo of the two. I would do with Wilwood 6 piston drilled. (more reputable and longer in the business plus more street credit.)
