the ones on the picture are Brembo brakes and are two piston brakes vs the stock one piston.
your rotors will need to be upgraded to 330mm in order to fit those. make sure to buy ceramic pads for low dust. I love mine the minute i upgraded the brake system.


p.s. $40.00 is a hella of deal, i got mine for $95 plus shipping

most mb brakes are brembo. brembo is a large company that actually makes factory brakes for a lot of car companies.
