That's a great question.. Hopefully someone with some knowledge on this will chime in, I'm curious as well. Was hoping to get rid of that crappy tiny rear brake caliper in rear, damn thing looks like it belongs on a Kia rio and replace with a full size similar to front.

Their mentality is, you want big brakes on your W218?? Buy an AMG and you get big brakes. Ha that's how most manufacturers are, so cant really blame them.
