hey everyone just posted pics of my car and another member noticed I had solid rotors I went down n checked n sure enough the front are solid and rear are vented .does this sound right or is it stock ? this is my first benz so in very green on the car still . do u guy think I will have heat probs etc..?if so ill swap asap thanx for input everyone!
FWIW, these are the front rotors on my 220 S65. They're drilled and are floating (hub and disc can be separated). Despite the heat veins, they're still in spec according to my micrometer.
This is a front brake assembly for a 221 S65. Rotors appear to be solid and dimpled rather than drilled through. No slots.
If they're that worn that the dimples are gone, then the OP should also be able to discern a rather tall ridge at the edge of the rotor. In that case, they should definitely be replaced.
