W209 interchangeable brake thread

I have been looking at new ideas for a brake setup and know that we have a couple of options. I would still like to be able to post all of the details for anybody who is looking at upgrading calipers and rotors. part numbers and website links will help.

SLK55

CLK63

Interested.... I've got 30K miles on my clk55.. and it feels like a brake job is coming my way soon. Would rather upgrade than put stock parts back on.

i have calculated the CLK63 hardware with the part numbers from our great thread. the complete rear setup comes out to about $1300 but thats basically what u also pay for the front rotors alone @ $600+ a piece and calipers @ $540 each. at that price you could afford to buy the Evosport front rotors for a couple hundred more.

Where did you get those prices from? Assuming 6 pot at the front, 4 pot in the rear for ~$2600 all up?

parts.com

the equation is all there.

$1300 complete rear (calipers and rotors)

$1080 front calipers

$1200+ front rotors

you are looking at over $3600 for the complete CLK63 setup
