There are a couple depending what you're looking for. If you search brake upgrades or big brakes there are tons of write ups on people that have installed them. Are you running the Street Pack with the 21" wheels? What are you looking to get out of the upgrade?

looking for some fade resistance and an ability to run stock wheels, no huge upgrade, but enough to matter

Looking for upgrade on street driving, towing, racing?

If just street then you could up your game on the pads. Any other 'upgrades' you're talking about a brake kit, then you're talking a huge upgrade.

Do you have the street pack with the upgraded pads and wheels? Don't know if your'e going to see much of a diff to matter without goin for a full conversion. Again depends on what wheel and brake package you have.

Every single one is available on the stock wheel. gt350 brake swap, gt500 brake swap, trackhawk brake swap, Rotora brake kit, and super forged brake kit.

Some of those will require spacers though.

Superbugs and Rotora brakes don’t require new wheels but won’t fit with PIUs wheels. Only brake upgrade with PIU wheels would be a simple rotor and pad upgrade with stainless steel brake lines.
