Anyone know if these brembo brake discs will fit the C55 AMG??
THey would look pretty cool on the C55, since the rear brakes are not cross drilled.
thanks

in addition the exhaust now is quad tips like the C55, but w/ bigger oval tips!!! same w/ the SLK55 and the rest of the AMG line-up....and us C55 owners only have tiny *** round tips!!!! well, I guess if you pay $70k and up, they can justify the cross drilled rotors for the rear and bigger oval exhaust tips!! ...yeah, I'm a hater!! :p

05' CLK55 have new 6-piston Brembo caliper with 13.4'' floating rotor on the front and 4-piston Brembo caliper with 12.8'' floating rotor. I do not why they would not be used on C55s, maybe in 06'.

From MBUSA for C55 AMG:
Brakes AMG-enhanced dual-circuit power-assisted 4-wheel disc brakes. 13.6" perforated and internally ventilated front discs with enlarged AMG composite 4-piston fixed front calipers. 11.8" internally ventilated rear discs with dual-piston fixed calipers.
Bigger front brakes, and 500s only have 2 piston calipers, 4 is plenty, plus the rear brakes on a CLK must be bigger because its a larger tire and weighs more
