I was about to buy the RB kit but the kit is $ 2400 this kit used Brembo rotors for $ 1400 is about the same weight. SLS is not the same offset

If i'm not mistaken; 2010-2015 "Sls" (C197/R197) also sharing the same offset with all "55's/63's":-

which is (64.5mm), with (390mm) Front Rotor, code: "-B07",,

except (SGL/CCB):-

which is (58.5) with (402mm) Front Rotor, code: "B07+P98"..

So if I can buy the bracket separately. I can purchase the giro disc 390 mm rotors and it should fit since offset has been said to be the same for Sls and e63

But we can agree the giro disc not only look pretty the Are pounds lighter then factory 2 piece. So if I can increase size and still save weight per corner that’s a win

the 2pc 390mm brembo are the same weight as oem 1 pc.

I an just now big fan of the slided rotors, I like the cross drill look better. which slided are better for track and heat.

Brembo/OEM Front Rotor weight:-

A) 1-piece Rotor = (15.5kg).

B) 1.5-piece = (13.7kg).

C) 2-piece = (13.5kg).

https://www.girodisc.com/Girodisc-Fr...MG_p_6594.html. Shows they are 1400 for 2. Definitely more money then brembo. But we all knew that. Also the 360mm rotors from giro disc are 14.4 pounds compared to what the oem are. I’m assuming the 390mm weigh more but not a significant amount more. I’m thinking a lb or 2 more. Which still seems a couple pounds lighter.

They told me 390mm giro disc rotors with bracket is $ 1900 i guess is not a bad price if you want Girodisc still better then RacingBrake kit. But i am good with Brembo car brakes so much better and looks better.
