Rear Brake Upgrade to 360mm?

Morning/Afternoon/Evening team, depending where you are.

It’s maintenance time whilst the car is away for Winter. There’s a few things on the list such as pulleys, oil cooler but first up is brakes.

I have a 390mm kit for the front but I wondered whether there was such a simple upgrade kit for the rear to go from 330mm to 360mm? I’ve been deep in the internet but I can’t find anything. I wondered if you could provide any help.

Thank you!

Nope. You need to buy new rear calipers to do that. There is no adapter or anything that will work.

Thank you. So for example, I believe the CLS uses a 360mm disc, is it documented to be a bolt on solution using that calliper or, is it the same calliper mounted differently?

I realise the BS has 360mm and uses the same calliper as the normal C63 but, as that uses the E Class axle, I believe the mounting pours differ.

The rear caliper on the BS is not the same as the regular C63. That's why all the upgrade kits available come with new rear calipers because the existing doesn't have enough inside body clearance for a larger diameter rotor.
