Brembo advice
Help please.
I have a Brembo big brake kit on the way at last. 355mm front 328mm rear.
Anyone out there done this mod and if so, Are there any traps you found that you can stop me stepping into? Any drawbacks with braking performance? Any info will be welcome.
Ta!

I have Brembo 355/328 on my W210. I did the install myself. Pretty simple. I don't know how much different the W210 is from the 208. The stock w210 dust shields will hit the rotors and have to be bent back but you can do this with your bare hands. On the rear the dust shields also hit the calipers and have to be trimmed.

I'm pretty sure you will love your too.
