AMG P030 8-Piston Calipers + 2-Piece Rotors for S600

I always felt that the stock brake setup on the Mercedes-Benz S600 was inadequate for the weight of the car, so it is being upgraded to the AMG P030 Package which includes 8-Piston Calipers and 380mm 2-Piece Floating Composite Rotors.

The stock S600 brakes are adequate for the car.. The stock S430 brakes on an S600 however...

Yeah I offered you lots of cash for the stuff that's "sitting" in your garage while it could have been "stoping" my ****ing car.

Don't you have the S55 brakes and not he S65?

+1 That's what I thought too. The technical manuals for these cars have a section for the 4-Piston brakes and 8-Piston brakes... maybe the 8-Piston ones were available on all the 600 cars in Europe or elsewhere?

Alright here we go... got them both weighed on the scale:

OEM S600:
4-Piston Caliper: 11.82lbs
Stock Rotor: 25.06lbs

OEM Front: 73.76lbs

P030 S65:
8-Piston Caliper: 13.50lbs
380mm Rotor: 30.45lbs

P030 Front: 87.90lbs

The P030 setup is only 14lbs heavier!

Rears should be installed in the next week or so... 4-piston AMG/Brembo calipers and 348mm rotors.

If I ever get another W220, it's going to be your fault Oxygen.
