@WaveyKat,
What size are your wheels? I was told to change the wheels to 19" so they would clear the AMG BBK.. but I'm hoping 18" would be sufficient..

There are at LEAST 2 different sizes of the 4-piston brembo brakes. One takes a 330mm front rotor and another takes a 345mm front rotor. Also, the C32/C55 front calipers, although the same size as the C350 calipers, will have a different part number because they have a different, silver finish and are labeled AMG instead of Mercedes-Benz.

mate, could you please let me know the full size & offset of your wheels (front & rear) . I have 18" now with 35 offset, and CLK63 BBK front which is waiting to be mounted but I'm holding it till I get the rear calipers. I'm also thinking 'bout changing my wheels but I guess if 18" will clear the BBK, I'll just keep my wheels for now then.
