caliper help on my 08 C300 Sport
Hey Guys and Gals
,
Will the CLK55 amg brembos fit my 2008 C300 Sport?
Any advice, recommendations, help is GREATLY appreciated. I am wanting to get rid of this tiny brake system and get some brembos. I know the C63 AMG setup is probably the easiest (from what i read) but just wondering if there are any other options for me???????????
Once again, Thank you!

You'd have to do some research to see wether the C63 AMG calipers are the same as the CLK55 AMG calipers. You could ask that in the C63 as well. From what I know, the C63 AMG calipers are just plug and play aside from the adapter that Brembo or DCTmotorsports provide If the CLK are same as C63 then you should be good but you'd have to purchase that adapter to make it work.

Thanks itsLoonie
reason i ask is because the CLK calipers are a hell of a lot cheaper and if they fit, then you know dam right ill go that route.BTW, what rims are are your C in your signature??? look pretty good!

Thanks, the wheels are authentic BBS LMs. Need to repolish the lips still and hopefully I can put them back on.

Yea, that would be great. Want to do a BBK as well but they cost a grip. If the CLK and C63 arent the same, they might still work. One might just be a smaller caliper but don't quote me on that.

Well hope you find that information you're looking for.
My C is lowered all the way down on H&R coilovers with the rear spindles taken out. Basically I'm riding on springs with no spring pads, just springs in the rear. In the sig my car is on the driveway at an angle so it looks really low. It's not THAT low, yet anyways
