Thread: Brake Rotors

    Brake Rotors

    My brake rotors need to be replaced and I want to replace them with aftermarket rotors. The OEM brake rotors for the C36 are too expensive. Anyone have any suggestions as to where or who I can contact to get decent brake rotor replacements for my 1995 C36?
    Thanks.

    Oh man, there are a ton too choose from. Personally, I want to go to Brembo rotors, but there are other alternatives. KVR, Stoptech are a few I know of off hand. You do have many choices, but you will get what you pay for.

    Good luck,

    Go with OEM or Brembo. They are pricy but they're worth every penny. It's what stops your car, heh.

    Brabus:

    Do you know of a good place for Brembo rotors? I was quoted $400 for fronts and I think that is kinda high.

    What kind of price range are you looking at? Based on that I will give you what I think are some good choices.

    Also, What are the diameter of your rotors?

    Brembo, Coleman, Brakeman, Stoptech, AP and others.

    Thanks for the feedback.
    I just got off the phone with Mercedes and they want $400 for the front rotors and $120 for the rear rotors.
    That's $520 just for the rotors with no labor.
    Anyone hear of www.irotors.com ?
    They are offering me a complete set for $299.
    Anyone know if www.irotors.com products are any good?

    My front brakes are a 4-piston caliper 12.75" disc.
    The rears are a 2-piston caliper 11.5" disc.
