Do I need to upgrade Chrysler 300 SRT8 brakes?

If you drive aggressively and see fade, dust, or pedal pulsation, yes. OEM single-piece rotors warp under 300 SRT thermal loads. A 2-piece floating rotor kit with carbon ceramic pads addresses warp, fade, and pad life.

What kit fits the Chrysler 300 SRT8?

Ghost Brakes 777-XAM1043 is the dedicated 2-piece kit for 2005–2020 Chrysler 300 SRT8 fitment on the 390mm Brembo platform — bolt-on, no caliper modification.

Does the 300 SRT8 use Brembo brakes?

SRT8 and later V8 Brembo-trim 300 models use Brembo calipers with 390mm front rotors (2015+ 6-piston packages on some trims). Factory rotors are still single-piece G3000 iron — the calipers are capable; the rotors are the weak link.

How does 777-XAM1043 compare to dealer OEM replacement?

Dealer replacements reinstall the same G3000 design that warped. Ghost Brakes upgrades metallurgy and architecture (G3500 2-piece front, G11H18 rear) with lifetime warranty — typically less total cost over two OEM replacement cycles.

Can I install a 300 SRT8 brake kit myself?

Yes, with standard brake service experience. 777-XAM1043 is direct bolt-on — same process as an OEM pad and rotor swap.

Will this kit fit my 2015 300 SRT with 6-piston Brembos?

Confirm your exact submodel in the 777-XAM1043 fitment grid — 2015+ 6-piston Brembo front caliper trims are included when listed. Do not assume fitment from year alone.

What about Hellcat owners?

Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcat models use XAM1014 (2015–2020) or XAM1033 (2021+). Chrysler 300 SRT8 uses XAM1043 — same 390mm hardware family, separate SKU.

Is shipping and warranty included?

Yes — free continental US shipping and lifetime warranty on every 777-XAM1043 kit.

Chrysler 300 SRT8 Brake Upgrade Guide: Stopping 470 HP the Right Way

The 300 SRT8 Deserves Better Than Stock Brakes

The Chrysler 300 SRT8 was Chrysler's answer to the sport-sedan question — Hemi power, Brembo badges, and a chassis that could move. What it did not get was brake hardware engineered for that power repeated stop after stop. Single-piece OEM rotors and semi-metallic pads are the first things 300 SRT owners replace once they drive the car as intended.

777-XAM1043 is Ghost Brakes' complete answer: G3500 2-piece front rotors, G11H18 rear rotors, carbon ceramic pads, GEOMET coating, lifetime warranty, and a fitment list built specifically for 2005–2020 Chrysler 300 SRT8 — not a generic Mopar catch-all.

What You Get in the 777-XAM1043 Kit

G3500 2-piece floating front rotors (390mm platform)
G11H18 drilled & slotted rear rotors
Low-dust carbon ceramic pads — front and rear
GEOMET corrosion coating on all rotor surfaces
Lifetime warranty + free US shipping
