    Is anyone aware of a big(ger) brake kit for the 456M - I have gone to larger rims and would like to match up the size.

    I have a Brembo Big Brake Kit on my 575. No idea if it will fit a 456 but I can go through receipts if you want me to try and find more info.

    I have the Brembo brake upgrade on my 550, I believe it was about 4000.

    I have 10 piston Tarox's. Grooved not cross drilled (too much warp on cross drilled for daily driving)
    Did 6000 km on Gumball and 2 track days at Istanbul Park Formula 1 TRack. Just changed the pads last week. I am very pleased with performance and durability

    Are the Tarox 10 piston brake kit you used made for the 456 or was it made for the 550? If for the 550, did it fit the 456 without any modifications? Thanks for any info.

    Tarox s are for 550 but 456 and 550 share the same brake kit (just make sure your rims can take the larger calipers) So what ever you get for 550 will fit 456 no problem. I choose grooved design rather than cross drilled to minimize warp. Pretty happy with them .. No modifications on th kit.

    I had no problem with warping on my cross-drilled over 2 years and 25,000kms including many at high speed with hard braking. I have never heard that groved warp less than cross-drilled and am highly skeptical
