Cross-drilled roters for CLK500
Any suggestions on what to use with OEM calipers? Need to be anti-rust, cross-drilled (simply like the aesthetics), and maximum diameter for 19" wheels but still fit with the OEM calipers.
I am looking for actual part numbers and sources to purchase based on actual experiences.......... |
Stop Tech sells replacement rotors to fit the OEM calipers if I recall correctly
|
Thanks, but on Stop Tech's website, they state they do not have anything for the CLK500 in terms of direct rotor replacement........
|
I don't think you can go with bigger rotors and still use the same calipers. Also, I dont think anti-rust is much of an issue, because once you step on the brakes one time it clears the rust off the rotors.
|
I was actually looking at maintaining within 5% of radius, but am okay with the OEM sizes as well. Actually, I was more concerned with the hub rusting as well as the inner disc "blades".

Mercedes has a SPORT 209 option on the 2007 clk that uses a crossdrilled rotor
That may work for you...otherwise you MUST replace the calipers to use a Larger dia brake rotor... As for rust try Cad plate...Most Chrome shops will do cad plate work..and can be done in silver or gold. it works great as the stock/factory paint will NOT provide any help re rust on the hubs. I Did a set on my car aprox four years ago..still looks great! |
First quote from stealership was $220CAD per front rotor plus tax (14% here)...for the CLK550 x-drilled rotors....anyother manufacturers that make an applicable rotor (are the 04 rotors the same as the E500 and C32??)?
|
Got some Zimmerman's ordered........will see and post when they are swapped in early spring.........
|
Are there Zimmermann cross-drilled rotors for the rear brakes on a W209? Where can I find them?
|
I ordered them from eliteparts in Toronto.....they are being cadmium coated as well.......I'll shoot some pics when they come in ( a couple weeks )
|
How much did you get them for?
|
Use the C-230 W203..it will fit...i already used it..but i changed it to brembo already.. i bought it around 300...i forgot though..
|
Received them in today....look really good......will be installing in a few weeks.
|
All together (including taxes and cadmium coating) was about $750CAD for all 4......
|
Anybody try these?
|
I was reading through the E-Class forum and some guy had Irotors on his E500. He said they work good and price is great.Go there and read up on them and he also has a link to the e-bay store.I'm thinking of getting them myself for my clk500.
|
Does front drilled rotors from CLK550 will fit stock calipers CLK500 ?
|
Yes, the brakes are the same on both cars. Make sure you don't sport suspension option - if you do, then that has a different rotor (which is the same on both the CLK500 and CLK550 with sport package).
|
Actually i don't know if i have have sport package. How could i check it what part do i need?
|
I thought that the CLK500's shared the same rotor size with the CLK55, just the 55 had drilled rotors instead of solid? (my CLK500 has 4 piston calipers)

I decoded VIN and i see only
772 AMG STYLING PACKAGE-FRONT SPOILER, SIDE SKIRT Does it mean sport or its only body kit? |
Nope, that's not the sport suspension package - that's the "AMG sport appearance package", which is standard on all V8 W209s. The sport suspension package is 952, but in looking at this again, I noticed that the front brake rotor for 952 is the same as 494 (which is the California edition). I think the rotors are the same regardless. The "stock" part is A2094210012. California and sport rotors are A2034210912. I know the California brakes are the exact same size as stock, I think hey just use a different material to be compatible with California's DOT laws.

I have not heard of "sport suspension" package on an Clk500. I've heard of "sport suspension" on the clk350 model. |
