Well..guys..i am looking into getting some brakes for my car..

Xeon, the calipers for the C32 are really thick. Make sure your new wheels will clear them.

Yeah, C32 brakes can be put on the C-coupe, I've seen a couple already. Just make sure the wheels that you're getting can clear the caliper. You'll need to have an offset of ET30.

Hey, you have decided to keep your car?

Hoehn Motors in Carlsbad CA quoted me a price of around $650 for all the parts needed to do this.

I've also talked much with MB USA about wheels... the C7 rims should fit (but no one knows for sure yet!). I have the C32 rims on for summer and use the C7 for winter so cross all digits!

Let us know how it goes. I'll be doing mine this spring.

Is that the price for the front calipers/rotors?

Any idea on what it would cost for front and back?

There is really no need to change the rear brakes, other than to get drilled rotors so they match the front.
