Since you've already got the caliper, could you do a measurement and post it with the part number to help the rest of the member to get it clear?

Yeah sure W219 & W218 uses the same drum dia., which is (180x25),,

but can't assure the fitment of parking shoes, due to differ shape of the parking shoes & shoes mounted base (in dust shield)..!

I am sure the size of the drum is 180mm. I just look up the drawing from Brembo and ATE. However, I am not sure whether they have a different mounting position of the back plate or not.

Yeah, that's why prefer to get "W219" shoes,,

but before that, just get "W219 Cls63" Rotor & try it with "W218" shoes, it may fit,,

it's really not big deal..!

Agree. Since he said he already got the calipers, just try it as long as the caliper's mounting hole is the same. However, if he need to search for the caliper, I will also suggest to go with the w218's AMG setting because it use the same brake shoe on both car. It means that it will fit without any problem.

Yeah, agree with you for sure,,

done many brake upgrade with many differ M/Y before,

just around 5 years ago, installed "W204 C63" F/R calipers & Rotors into "W219 Cls350",

and "W211 E63" F/R calipers & Rotors into "W218 Cls500", Fronts was bolt-on, but Rears not..!,

had to change the dust plate & parking shoes, everything else was fine..

Calipers get delivered tomorrow so I can check.

I thought 2009 E63 would be same as 2009 CLS63... Is there a part number for the shoes to be replaced?

Before gets brake shoes, just try your exist shoes, it may fit..?!?,

if not, then you can get "W219" shoes,

"W219" brake shoes #: "230 420 03 20",

can't assure to you about hole pattern measurement bro.,

06-10 "W219 Cls63 & 07-09 "W211 E63" comes with differ Rear spindle & caliper bolt hole pattern,,

(75mm) or (90mm), depends to the M/Y spec..!

Why rushing,

just keep the exist shoes and try the Rotor, if not fit, then get "W219" shoes..

as told;-

06-10 "W219 Cls63 & 07-09 "W211 E63" comes with two options of Rear spindle & caliper bolt hole pattern,,

(75mm) or (90mm)..!
