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.

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.
