Caliper question
What AMG calipers fit the E550 Coupe? Are all Brembo Calipers the same with the exception of the bottom bracket? Was wondering if there is an interchange manual? Thanks in advance

It's true. I have been in contact with Weistech, RENNtech, Kleeman, TTM, the Vette Doctors and am currently still researching the options to put 4 piston calipers and larger diameter rotors (equal in diameter) to the front rotor.
Not considering the $8,000 Brembo kit ($4,000 per axle). Those I already know work on our 18" AMG factory wheels.
So far, I understand that the AMG rotors will fit on the axle but we still need to take measurements regarding the bracket and to make sure which caliper options are available and which brand rotors would fit for cross drilled, slotted, and cross drilled/slotted.
When I finish my research and have my final decision on the car. I will post photos and share the info. I was hoping to have this done by the end of September but I am still trying to schedule a time to get the measurements out of the way and then we need to order the parts and wait if they aren't in stock.
