Not sure what happened but my text and before pictures disappeared.

Finally decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to AMG brakes.

Really wanted to do the same on my car but decided the cost / effort wasn't worth it (too hard to find any good information or pricing for 4-matic).

Have you noticed any differences in braking?

That has to have changed the handling pretty dramatically. Nice wheels and tire choice as well. The whole enchilada.

BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Been wanting to do it too!!!
But as i know, there is adapter needed for 2014 E550.

Which AMG brake are they ? any part numbers ?

Thnanks!!

ghlkal

Wow, looks great

Jm77

Yes definitely an improvement in braking, but I did it purely for the looks

6 pot up front and 4 pots rear. Don’t have the part numbers sorry. Paid a firm to do it. I am based in HK.

Jm77

Thanks! Went all out in the wheels/tyres/brakes department.

cocobeex

yea!! i need to do that too. I know whole bunch people in HK and TW can do it.
But just not North America...very strange.

I am on stock caliper.
One time, a client of our company walks in our office.

He shout out - Who owns that E class out there and its caliper is PUNY!!!!!!! i was so embarrassed. LOL

Jm77

Haha it’s all about how you feel about your own ride bro
There are too many car companies close by here that has these upgrades. Not good for the wallet

So, what AMG bakes are these? My non AMG E550 front calipers look a lot stronger that these red AMG calipers.

Jm77

Would you mind posting some pictures of your callipers?

here are some more close ups of mine

Arrie

Mine surely are not red in color but they seem quite large. The spoke of the wheel covers the "Mercedes Benz text on the caliber but if I try to include that to the picture then both ends of the caliber are behind two spokes. Looking at the pictures it seems the AMG brakes are quite a bit bigger though my brakes are so strong I don't feel I need any bigger. But it is all for looks, right?

Jm77

Ahh I see what you mean. I like this setup, if my original callipers were like these I would not have changed it. They look bigger in relation to the wheel at a guess. I am running 20s. Thanks for posting!

Do you still have the work order for this? Curious if you needed brackets. Or if you could possibly take off a wheel and post a picture of the back side where the caliper is mounted? Would be helpful (if you still have the car, of course). I can’t seem to find out whether these brakes just bolt on or not.

I really want to do this please post part Number that I need for my 2011 e550.

Thank you
