Guys, i would like to try some other rotor and pads for road/track and as been contacted by seler of centic.
He prupose some centric sport rotor 128.35118 and EBC yellow brakes pads.
Your pads selection is fine. I'm not sure those centric rotors are OEM, but they look decent. Those rotors are 1 piece = 36lbs. You can upgrade to the two piece (like a performance pack or 507 rotors) 127.35103 = 29lbs. Racingbrake.com has C63 that are 24lbs. You don't seem like the type to settle so I would recommend getting the 2-piece (centric, OEM, or bacing brake).
Yes the rotors are interchangeable. The only difference between normal brakes and performance pack brakes is the 2-piece rotor vs. 1-piece. The calipers are the same (paint them red, get some 2-piece rotors and you have performance pack brakes)
When it comes to rear two piece rotors, especially for Mercedes which has rear emergency brakes, you should pay close attention to how the rear hats are made.
Are they just cut from aluminum billet so that your emergency brakes must be deleted (if the supplier disclosed it) or make it the right way as RB's true light weight, forged aluminum hat with iron sleeve insert to retain your emergency brake.
People get confused between parking brake and emergency brake. Although they both work under the same mechanism, however emergency brake is mechanically operated (via hand brake), which enables you to stop the car via the shoes, in case the hydraulic system fails. It's not just a parking brake.
RB brakes are designed and built with safety and integrity in mind. When we first developed the rear two piece rotors, it was tested by a CamaroSS driver on Texas track using the e-brake to stop the car at track speed.
