First off grammer 101... it's brakes not breaks and it's calipers not caliber.

A disc brake utilizes a caliper as housing for it's brake pads and uses pistions to compress the pad against the disc.

So no, these are not "piston brakes" replacing "calipers"...

These are 4 piston calipers replacing 1 piston calipers.
