Only the front 8 pistons will fit. Not sure if anyone figured out the rears on 4matic models.

Sorry when people say "E55", it's the W211 not W210, right?

Very cool. You mind showing those options on a white S550. Painted calipers are a very nice touch done right.

. Did you consider body color match calipers?
Can I PM you an image white S550?
Thanks.

Yellow or copper and I would play with maroon and body color. I tried to post a few more pics of body color calipers but can't get multiples to download.

However, on the white 550 - red, yellow or white are my options. May try maroon

There is a cheap set on eBay UK if anyone is interested.
I am quite tempted myself too.

Those don't look like they are from the right year E55. you need W211 body calipers.

The original silver/gray would be best. Black if you must go with something different. Those other colors really downgrade the look of your otherwise awesome looking S550.

The listing says it's from a 2004 E55, that's right isn't it?

hey everyone, i pulled a caliper with a part number of 19.7661.04. I wanted to know if anyone can chime in and let me know if they fit the W221 S600 without having to modify the mount or brackets. Thanks in advanced!

S350 BT 4MATIC

OK,I just saw this thread. So I have a 4MATIC wit stock 19" wheels, so I am guessing that I can go:

Front - 6 Pot AMG brakes
Back - 4Pot AMG brakes?

Can someone please point me to the part numbers for these?

Thanks and Regards

Not sure about the part numbers on the Calipers but Lots of sponsors sell them. DCTmotorsports and Steve MBenzNL.

Ask for fitment and they'll help you out.

There are tons of threads about this... please read this thread or use the search function to find the info.

There is no 2012 S55 4Matic... Someone must have debaged your "0" from the 550. =)

Hi. I have a s550 4matic and would like to upgrade to s600 6piston brakes. You are referring toto some front kit for 4matic in order to make it work. Do you have a link where to buy or what is the genuine name for the kit? I can't find it. Thx in advance
