Will This Fit My Car?
Full Upgrade CCB Big Brake Kits (With Calipers) for the 2017-2023 Porsche Panamera (971) Turbo. This page's exact brake setup:
| Model Years | Front Setup | Rear Setup | Min. Wheel Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017-2023 | Akebono OEM Porsche 10-Piston (10N) Caliper / 440mm | Brembo OEM Porsche 19Z 4-Piston Caliper / 410mm | 22" |
Every StopFlex kit is bespoke-engineered for your exact model and trim — brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are matched to your specific car, never assumed from the platform. Trims that share a chassis name can differ mechanically: a pure performance variant often carries different knuckles, hub geometry, and wheel ET clearance than the standard models, so parts that bolt onto one are not the parts that fit the other. Calipers, pads, rotor hats, floating hardware, and brake lines ship as one matched system built to your confirmed trim. Modified knuckles, uprights, or non-factory suspension mounting points must be reviewed before ordering.
The 440 mm rotor sets the minimum wheel size at 22" — smaller wheels will not clear the caliper and rotor. Spoke profile and offset also affect clearance; confirm your exact wheels before ordering.

| 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
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.
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.
Winter & Cold-Weather Braking
A cold, untuned carbon-ceramic disc needs more pedal than iron on the first winter stops — normal material physics. StopFlex engineered the pad formula and disc coating specifically for cold starts, closing that gap: cold-car winter feel is now very close to summer feel. Keep a little extra distance on the coldest mornings; for harsh winters, choose Street Spec.
Caliper Overview
Front Caliper
The front is the Akebono OEM Porsche 10-Piston (10N) Caliper clamping a 440mm carbon-ceramic rotor. Ten pistons spread pad pressure evenly across a long pad, which keeps pedal feel consistent as this 2-ton sedan sheds repeated high-speed stops.
Rear Caliper
The rear runs the Brembo OEM Porsche 19Z 4-Piston Caliper on a 410mm rotor. It adds the rear thermal capacity a heavy Panamera needs on sustained braking and works with the factory electronic parking brake.
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.
Get Your Fitment Confirmed
Before ordering, tell us the exact vehicle, current rotor sizes, and caliper type. Nothing goes to production until the build is confirmed against your VIN-level configuration.
FAQ
How does this kit brake in cold winter weather?
A carbon-ceramic disc that hasn't been tuned bites less than cold iron on the first stop or two — that's normal physics, not a fault. We tuned both the pad compound and the ceramic disc coating for cold starts, so cold-car winter feel now comes very close to summer feel on this Panamera. On the coldest first stops it's still smart to leave a little extra following distance until the front 440mm rotors take heat.
Will this fit my exact Panamera trim?
Every kit is engineered for your confirmed 971 Turbo trim, not the platform. Brackets, rotor-hat offsets, and caliper mounting are matched to your car's front uprights and hub geometry. Turbo and standard 971 variants can differ mechanically, so we don't make a universal bolt-on claim — we build to your VIN-confirmed configuration.
What wheels do I need to clear these rotors?
The front rotor is 440mm, so the minimum wheel size is 22 inches. Anything smaller will not clear the caliper and disc. Spoke design also matters — narrow-clearance 22-inch wheels can still foul the Akebono 10N caliper, so send us your wheel spec and we'll confirm before you order.
Does the factory brake wear warning still work?
Yes. The kit includes pad wear sensors that are fully compatible with the Porsche OEM wear-sensor system, so your factory pad-wear warning keeps working with no dashboard errors. The rear Brembo 19Z calipers also retain the factory electronic parking brake function.
