I purchased these from American muscle and wound up getting a good deal on a wildwood aero 6 kit so I don't need these. new unused. 40.00 shipped to lower 48.

Can someone explain to me what these do exactly?
You remove your factory break disc shield and install these they allow more air to get to the rotor so it cools better the little tabs that extends off of The Shield protects the steering tie rod end. They fit all the different brake configurations boem twin-piston as well as the brembos.

I have them also. Besides like mentioned replace the dust shields for better cooling they drop like 1/2 pound from each side of the car lol.

I never liked the idea of dust shields on a Brembo brake car. I feel the factory shields could hold too much heat in and cause premature rotor warping

I’ve put nearly 80,000 miles on my 2005 with Brembos with no overheating issues. Rotors are now getting too thin.
My 14” Wilwood SL6 kit has arrived at my freight forwarders.
I won’t have time to install them till after my vacation it seems.
