I havent tried my spare yet but I can try it on, and check if people are interested in knowing. I think the rotors are the same diameter on four piston set up and six piston but someone will have to varify that??? The caliper could be a little larger too ??
your set's going out tomorrow morning I've send you a PM.

nah frank, you gotta read again.

i only wanted to rears, because i dont like that my rear brakes look so tiny now that i have the 19". but then again you said that the rear ones in this group buy arent drilled, right?

also i wouldnt want a different caliper in the rear (or however its called - the thing with the AMG on it in your latest picture) because it would look stupid. i would then have to go with the fronts too and im happy with my fronts.

the C32/55 rear's not drilled. The CLK55/SLK55 one is the one in the picture.

you can always paint them.

yes, 2005-2006 CLK55 uses the same brakes as the SLK55. The brake kits would be a bolt on for the SLK350. You will need at least 18" to clear the front caliper tho.

that I am not sure. I believe the bracket can be modified, but if it works you might need a bigger brake pump. I've heard people put full Brembos on the W202, but the pump doesn't have enough power to bring fluid to both front and rear.

are you sure the clk55 and the slk55 rear 4 piston brakes will be a direct bolt on? i dont totally remember but i think when i did it before there was a few modifications needed. i could be wrong (did it over a year ago) but for some reason i remember that

i think the rear is a direct bolt on, but the front probably needs some slight modification.

yes it would. Few people already done it. I think pictures can be found from search in the C32/55 forum. I don't remember who it was tho.
