Tax is determined based on the billing address where the credit card is registered to. If you are a CA resident, then you will be paying CA tax. Don't blame me, it's the law!

what if we pay in cash?

OK, OK . . . Nov0798,

We all understand that better tires equal better braking. No disagreements here. Again, please consider that no single part is responsible for better braking, all of the parts working together do the job. (If you've ever raced an Improved Touring car, then you know about chasing the weakest link around the braking system - first the pads, then with PFC pads, the rotors warp; then heat-treated rotors, and the fluid boils; then HT fluid, and the brake lines heat and flex; then . . . and . . . also . . .)

What I don't understand is your belief that it is necessary to have outdriven the stock brakes in order to upgrade to larger brakes.

Some people want the looks of the larger brakes, some people DO run track events in their MBs, some people simply want the best. . .

I'm certain that people did not exceed the abilities of their previous cars before upgrading to a Benz . . . they simply wanted something better than average.

If I had unlimited funding, I would upgrade too (still may, in the future). In addition to better numerical performance, the 'feel' of the car is important - better feel is another benefit of a larger system. (Of course, to upgrade the feel further, you need braided stainless brake lines).

There are many different people in this forum, with many different opinions. Let's all enjoy life, and our MB's, and let's try to be more open-minded about other people's preferences (I personally don't care for BLING-BLING cars, but there are many here who go that route . . more power to them!).

I respect your point that tires make a difference. Now, please respect our point that anything that is made well can also be made better.

All you braking physicists take it to another thread!

This is tiresome. Ben has put together an awesome deal and you guys have to pollute the thread. Sheesh!

Who cares, if I want to spend $550 for pretty disks so be it. If it works better - all the nicer.

tom incredibie

one last question, so this will fit my car without the need of spacers? i have the c7 rims. and what time will you stop taking orders?

Harris

Yeah, with the bigger calipers, do people need AMG 17" Style IV wheels or 18" wheels???

trench

The C7 wheels will fit the C32 brakes, no spacers necessary.

I forget who's car this is, but:

Cheers, BT

Mach430

No problem.

Xeon

if it is 20...will it be cheaper...

bajaiman

Can I just get the stainless steel lines if I don't get the brakes??...I've just sent you an email

breastroker

Ben,
Those cross drilled rotors, I assume are for the back as the front AMGs come that way. Will you be selling the stainless steel lines seperately?

Mach430

Well, the day is over and so is this group buy. Thank you to each of the 20 people that made this happen!

The Brembo rotor prices listed above are for the rear. And are available at that price to all 20 of the group buy members.

Have a good weekend!
Ben
