Since you are using the W219 Cls63's caliper, you should use the rotor and pads from the same car. Rotor 211-423-1012 and 211-423-1112 and pad 005-420-25-20-41. I think you don't have to change the shoe on the drum(e-brake). The shoes for the drum should be OK. Keep us posted.

2012 CLS550 4Matic
Hey djrabbi, I am looking to do the same brake upgrade as you did. Would you please let me know which set of rotors and calipers from which AMG model will be compatible/straight bolt on with the 2012 CLS550 4Matic W218? After reading through the whole thread it was a little confusing to understand. If anyone can help, I appreciate it. Thanks.

Yesterday I did the same upgrade on my rears, from stock 320mm to AMG 360mm





Everything was plug n play and I was so happy to see, how everything fits nice, like on the AMGs.

Could someone here say, how the brake balance between front an rear now is? From my feeling, it is the same. But it brakes really harder at low speed. What are your experices?
