What brakes? Renntech,Brabus,oem?

On a s65 07 what brakes work the best then what looks the best to every one?

Renntech has 8 piston and 4 piston

Brabus has 6,12 & 4 Piston
And a Carbon set up.

Oem has a carbon 6 Pistion.
Or Oem that comes on s65.

If theres any others out there throw them in the mix.
In the end what works just as well as the oem 65s if better how much better.
Then what looks good in every ones eyes/opinion?

This some pics of whats out there that I found.

2018 S63, lowered
The s65 brakes from 60-0 within 8ft of the 1,700lb lighter 911 turbo, 4ft of the GTR and 1,800 lb lighter z06, And will do it 4ft quicker than the 1000lb lighter jaguar xkr and 3ft quicker than the 1300 lighter C6 corvette The list could go on and on. MB did their homework on the brakes......guess that's what a 190k car and a 5k dollar brake job will get ya. .

what more could you possibly need?

U should know its not about need lol

I just like interesting things but dont want to go back wards as in have less braking power.
But for looking at I wondered what people like.
Now the s65 weight 5082 and cls 63 2012 weight 4806.
So the cls 63 has option for carbon brakes $12,625.00
S65 111ft
cls63 carbon 113ft
This is what I found doing some searching.
y dont they just offer the s65 brakes as an option for cls & others.
I for got that brakes are only as good as the tires are so wonder how much of a dif the tires are making for s65 or cls 63?
