Thank you for the clarification.

We have since acquired a brand new 2016 CLS550 as our company project car dedicated for brake development here:

Any installation pics on the OEM caliper RB BBK and experience to share.

CLS Custom

Hello Again,

My apologizes for not posting sooner; I have been extremely busy. I am overall extremely happy with the brake upgrade, both in the quality of the parts and in the added braking performance, but also in the professionalism of the company and staff! Win, win! This brake upgrade was exactly what the car needed! Stops on a dime!!! I look forward to doing business with RB again!!!

RacingBrake

Thanks for sharing Chris.

We have just released the 390/390mm BBK for CLS completed w/RB anodized calipers,

Is this bolt on kit with OE MB

RacingBrake

Yes. Both OE and RB brake kits are made for a bolt on installation - At about the same price as a dealer's brake job.

RacingBrake

I am sure other members who are interested in learning what modification is needed if not a bolt-on install, and what issues you are trying to work out.

Thank you for your clarification and sharing.

RacingBrake

Many kits have been sold and installed with success (including our company test car - 2016 CLS550), and we can certify the kit is a 100% bolt installation (with either MB calipers or RB calipers).

By the way, do you have any two pieces rear replacement rotor for this car?

RacingBrake

The rear (320x24) was in design, but since most customers choose to upgrade to OE 360mm, or RB 390mm rotor kit so they were not made available yet.

harryTAM

for your "OE replacement Two-piece rotor (Open Slot) - MERCEDES CLS550 2012+ Front" product code 2499, you mention it will come with a different pad other than the OE size for better fitment. Does the OE pad still able to work with this rotor?

djrabbi

I only want to do rear caliper upgrade, is it possible? Plug and Play?

cm60k

You can go with 2009-2016 "W212 E63" or 2011-2017 "W218 Cls63" rear calipers & Rotors,

they're "plug & play",,

or you can get a complete kit from RB..

Are you planning on something in the front after you do the rear brake?

As i know; MB only got contract with "Textar & Brembo/Jurid" as OEM front pads, for "W218 Cls550":-

A) "007 420 73 20", as "Textar", with code: "494"

B) "007 420 99 20", as "Brembo/Jurid", with code: "431"

I will do 6 piston once I get a good deal on them. I got a great deal on the rears

djrabbi

What about 2009 W219 Calipers?

cm60k

A) "W218 Cls63" Rear Rotor comes with drilled & perforated, and (360x26),

B) "W219 Cls63" Rear Rotor comes with drilled only, and (330x26),

"W218 Cls63" Rear caliper base hole bracket is bigger than "W219 Cls63", due to (30mm) of Rotor dia..!,,

*can't go with "W219 Cls63" calipers only, have to get Rotors & hand brake shoes as well..!

-;ZAYED;-

djrabbi

I got 2009 W219 ones already but I know I have to get rotors but what hand brake shoes?

cm60k

The Parking Brake Shoes..

harryTAM

I actually want to find out whether the Racing Brake 2 pieces rotor #2499 can work with the OE pad because the RB's website say #2499 will come with a pad in different size other than OE size. Anyone knows about this?

cm60k

Also,

before doing anything, have to measure the distance between caliper holes,,

09 Cls63 comes with two differ Rear spindle hole pattern,,

(75mm) & (90mm),

have to compare if your exist Rear caliper got the same measurement with 09 Cls63 caliper..!
