Default Experiences with Wilwood Billet Dynalite Calipers ??

Hello,

I will buy a Brake kit from wilwood (Nr. 140-6163-D) 12.19" Rotors with 4 Piston Calipers.
Problem is, the calipers have not dust seals !!

Which experiences thereby made you??(dirt,germinate,.....)

P.S. I drive the car only in the summer ,(not snow):-)

Thanks,
Nico

We run the wilwood calipers on dirt track cars and sprints here with no problems on dirt, so driving around on pavement should be just fine.

In terms of performance or durability? Can you be a little more specific with what info you want?
Thanks

I think I saw Fastbrakes advertising new Wilwood calipers w/ seals in their kits... may be what you are after.

We have had no problems with them being contaminated with dust, even though we race with them on a dirt track. The braking performance is on-par with other high performance 4 piston calipers.
