Looking to purchase brake upgrade kit, R1 Concepts feedback

[Todd Turbo S]

Hi All, I’m looking into purchasing R1 Concepts Brake Caliber/Rotors upgrades for the front and rear on my 2020 Raptor with OEM Bead locks wheels. I understand spacers are required in order to clear the wheel?

I’ve read some positive and negative reviews and would appreciate any feedback for those of you that have either installed this brake kit yourself or had them installed.

I really want some assurances that this will function without any issues and not become a trouble shooting nightmare to figure out what might not be working as intended.

I have a buddy that will be purchasing a set with me as well and he will be helping me install this brake upgrade.

thanks in advance fir your feedback.

No spacers needed. You just need new wheels with 20inch rims if you are going for biggest rotors.

I am wanting to upgrade rotors and calipers on my 2020 - I have read that there is an upgrade available with stock wheel. I am wanting F&R with stock wheels anyone know for sure what brake upgrade fits?

I ended up going with Alcon. They fit with my OEM Beadlock wheels and .07 mm spacers that was included with the kit. Nick with Apollo Optics helped me, give him a call. They work great too.

We sell R1 BBK and Alcon, more R1 than anyone on this forum. Alcon’s are popular because a lot of vendors offer them too. Alcon’s are not compatible with the rear electric parking brake so they only offer the fronts unless yours is manual. R1 Concepts on the other hand has a patented solution for the rear so you can have BBK both in front and rear regardless.

We offer forum member discount on both products, just message me for details.

Do the R1 concepts fit 17' Wheels as well? Or is a spacer required for clearance?
