Another C with Brembos
just installed my brakes at carlab! i couldn't get the rears because of the offset on my wheels because i wanted a fat 3-inch lip. otherwise, planning to at least powder coat the rears red to match the front.

please excuse the dirty car....

Man, that looks great. An open wheel with beefy brakes.

Once you bed in the brakes, give us some info on how they stop.

Nice Jason, it's about time you got some. Were you at the shop yesterday? I was in SJ to take my car to the dealership for service. My car is almost back to stock, little by little. Just sold the front bumper and HID fogs to Richard. Now gotta sell the quad exhaust and rear valence. See ya soon, hopefully.

you can also feel the steering respond better due to light weight rotors that reduce the unsprung weight at the corner.

btw, was this Greg's bbk?

Is it a big difference compared to the stock brembos that came on the 2004.5 and 2005 C-Class sports?

The set up looks beautiful. Red calipers, very classy and goes with the white perfectly.
