Will 4matic brake kits fit base model RWD?
Looking to upgrade my brakes all around they are about due, and can't seem to find a base model kit only the 4matic version (Powerstop Z23 full rotors and pad kit). Is there any reason the 4matic version wouldn't fit??

Why are you trying to install 4matic brakes on your rwd? Which rwd do you have? 4matic brakes have different backspacing and are not compatible.
E55 brakes require different spindles or drilling out the spindles on a bench. Not to mention the insane cost. E350/E550 330mm 4 post are a much better bolt on option IMHO.
