19" |
Fitment here is bespoke: brackets, hat offsets, and caliper mounting are engineered for your exact model and trim rather than copied across the platform. Two trims with the same chassis code can still differ in knuckles, hub geometry, and wheel ET clearance — which is why we confirm your trim first, then build the matched system of calipers, pads, rotor hats, floating hardware, and lines for it. Modified knuckles, uprights, or non-factory suspension points require review before ordering.
The 380 mm rotor sets the minimum wheel size at 19" — smaller wheels will not clear the caliper and rotor. Spoke profile and offset also affect clearance; confirm your exact wheels before ordering.
| Wheel Size (Standard) | Disc Range |

| 16" | 285 mm – 300 mm |
| 17" | 300 mm – 330 mm |
| 18" | 330 mm – 355 mm |
| 19" | 355 mm – 380 mm |
| 20" | 380 mm – 400 mm |

Why Carbon Ceramic — and Why StopFlex
Rust-Free Rotor Surface
Ceramic discs cannot flash-rust. After rain, a wash, or weeks of parking, the rotor face behind your open-spoke wheels stays clean — no orange ring on a freshly detailed car.
Long Street-Service Life
In normal road use with matched pads and correct bedding, one StopFlex CCB rotor set is engineered to outlast several sets of iron replacement rotors, recovering part of the up-front cost.
Low Visible Dust
Matched with StopFlex pads, the system sheds a fraction of the dust an iron rotor and pad combination throws. Wheels stay clean for weeks of driving instead of days.
Premium Ceramic-Glaze Finish
StopFlex's proprietary coating gives the disc a bright ceramic-glaze surface with subtle texture — the factory carbon-ceramic look, clearly visible through open wheel designs.
Continuous Fiber Construction
StopFlex discs are built with long continuous carbon fiber instead of chopped short fiber. Continuous strands carry load across the whole rotor body, raising strength and thermal durability under heat cycles.
Bespoke Per-Vehicle Engineering
Every order is machined to the confirmed vehicle and trim. Brackets, hat offsets, and pad shapes are built for that exact car — never pulled from a one-size-fits-all catalog.
CCB-Specific Pad Compound
A low-metallic resin pad compound reinforced with steel, copper, and aramid fiber, made for ceramic discs: stable to about 750 °C, roughly 0.44 average friction, strong fade resistance, low rotor wear.
Lower Unsprung Mass
A carbon-ceramic rotor weighs roughly half of the equivalent iron disc. Less rotating, unsprung mass lets the suspension follow broken pavement more cleanly and makes steering response noticeably sharper.
High-Temperature Stability
The carbon-silicon-carbide friction matrix keeps working at temperatures that push iron rotors into heavy fade, so the tenth hard stop feels like the first — same pedal travel, same bite point.
Winter & Cold-Weather Braking
Winter question, straight answer: untuned ceramic discs bite less when cold. StopFlex optimized the pad compound and the rotor's ceramic coating for cold operation, so cold-start braking in winter feels very close to warm-weather braking. Extra following distance on freezing first stops is still smart; severe-winter daily cars should run Street Spec.
Caliper Overview
Front Caliper
The front is a Brembo 6-piston caliper clamping a 380 mm carbon-ceramic rotor. You choose the exact caliper: V6 (Brembo OEM Cadillac CTS-V), GT6 (Brembo GT | M6), or GTS6 (Brembo GT | S6). All three give you even six-piston clamp and a firm, repeatable pedal on repeated hard stops.
Rear Caliper
The rear pairs a Brembo 4-piston caliper with a 380 mm carbon-ceramic rotor, matched to your front choice: V4 (OEM Cadillac CTS-V), GT4 (GT | M4), or GTS4 (GT | S4). It adds real rear thermal capacity, and we build the rear to keep your factory electronic parking brake working.
Choose Your Rotor: Street, Track-Day, or Motorsport
Street Spec
Ceramic coating, cross-drilled face, and large cooling channels.
Best for daily driving and premium street builds that need clean cold bite, low dust, corrosion-free appearance, and long service life.
Track-Day Spec
Ceramic coating, blank face, and honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for fast-road and track-day use where repeated braking stability matters more than maximum visual drilling style.
Motorsport Spec
Uncoated blank face with honeycomb cooling channels.
Best for race-focused builds that run competition pads, high-temperature fluid, cooling strategy, and a proper warm-up window. Not the default street choice.
Heat Management Note
High rotor temperature tolerance does not mean heat management disappears. Under repeated hard braking, heat migrates into the pads, brake fluid, seals, calipers, and wheels even when the ceramic disc itself is comfortable. Plan brake cooling and high-temperature fluid for extended track sessions, long mountain descents, or sustained aggressive driving.

Share your year, model, trim, wheel size, current rotor dimensions, and caliper type — every order is verified against your VIN-level configuration before it goes to production.
FAQ
How do these carbon-ceramic brakes behave on a cold winter morning?
A cold carbon-ceramic disc bites a bit less than cold iron on the first stop or two. That's physics, not a fault. We tune both the pad compound and the disc's ceramic coating for cold starts, so first-stop winter feel comes very close to summer. Still, leave a little extra following distance on the coldest first stops until the discs see some heat.
Will this fit my exact CLA, and is it a platform bolt-on?
No, we don't sell this as a platform-wide bolt-on. Each kit is engineered for your confirmed trim. A CLA45 or 45S uses different front knuckles and hub geometry than a base CLA250, so the brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are built specifically for the car you tell us. Confirm your VIN and trim and we cut the fitment to match.
What wheel size do I need to run the 380 mm rotors?
The front and rear rotors are 380 mm, so you need at least a 19-inch wheel. Anything under 19 inches won't clear the disc and caliper. Spoke shape matters too, so send us your wheel details if you're on aftermarket rims and we'll verify clearance before you buy.
Does the kit keep my electronic parking brake working?
Yes. The C118/X118 CLA uses a factory electronic parking brake, and the rear Brembo 4-piston setup is built to retain full EPB function. You keep auto-hold and the electric park brake exactly as delivered from the factory.
