This car is the epitome of luxury SUVs in the Mercedes lineup. It's got size and weight that make it one of the heaviest contenders in the game. Just like this GLS X166 pictured below, the curb weight alone clocks in at a whopping 2.5 tons, and when fully loaded with passengers, it could easily reach around 3.3 tons. Unfortunately, the stock GLS-Class comes equipped with a modest 1-piston brake system at the front and rear. While it does the job for basic braking performance, navigating areas with reckless lane-cutting drivers and surprise pedestrian appearances often demands sudden and aggressive braking. And let's be honest, sometimes the stock brakes may not handle it. Enter genuine AMG Performance high-performance brake system.

This X166-exclusive Genuine front brake system features striking red brake calipers with a 6-piston setup, coupled with enlarged 390mm brake discs. It's similar to stock, if stock got onto self improvement and went to the gym for a few years. Nah, the overall braking performance surpasses that of the stock system, allowing for shorter braking distances and significantly improving overall driving safety. These AMG calipers with their killer looks are not only eye candy but also designed with a six-piston setup, arranged in a progressively increasing size pattern. This not only provides powerful braking capabilities but also ensures a linear braking feel, without any surprises. Of course, a genuine OEM product, specifically engineered for this vehicle, meets all the rigorous standards for vehicle inspections, guaranteeing quality and stability.

As a matter of fact, as I sit here writing this, we already ordered the rear kit, and waiting for it to arrive, because the customer was very happy with the performance.
