I need someone with an SL55 in Phoenix, AZ to...
...take their car to Baer Brake Systems for them to develop a fitment for 2 piece rotors for our cars. The factory rotors are heavy and heat intolerant, aside from having poor lifespan. Also MB was so cheap they only ordered one rotor design rather than one for left and a mirror image for the right. One side actually channels air away from the disc surface. Nobody currently manufactures rotors that will be a factory replacement for our stock rotors, so if there is interest, Baer would probably make an application for us. Since the rotors on the E55, S55, SL55, and CL55 are the same, there will be a reasonable demand, I think.
Anyone want to help by bringing their car to Baer for measurement and fitment? They are in Phoenix, AZ.
For curiosity's sake, how many of you are definitely interested?
