    Need aftermarket rotor opinions for C32 AMG calipers on my 202

    I got her a sWWWeet Xmass present! A set of brand new C32 AMG CALIPERS* complete with pads.

    So now I need rotors. I found many brands on eGay etc. but don't know which ones are made from good materials, as I don't want to sacrifice quality on that! I searched this forum but couldn't find anything. So unless you know a place where I can find cheap OEM ones, can you guys recommend a set of rotors to fit my C32 calipers on my 202?..

    in the past have bought zimmer crossed drilled rotors for my car and purchased them at autoparts warehouse . i usually get things in my emails with discounts from them since i m a past customer. check that site out and let me know if you decide to get something from there . ill check my emails for a discount code if you decide to go there and get them.

    Just get OEM rotors...they're only around $100 USD per rotor.

    Thanks for he help Logic, I'll have a look and let you know. About the OEM rotors, do you have any idea where I can get them online? Because Im pretty sure that in Greece cost waaay more than that!!!

    And could someone else share his experience with any other brands he's tested? Maybe i.e. the ones you find on eGay? Thanks a bunch.

    Found this, it looks good, (is it pricewise good?). Don't know about the material its made from... Does anyone know about R1 products or tried these? They make them for the C36/43 as well as other models...

    Smile I need rotors to fit my new C32 AMG calipers.

    I don't know where to look, or which brand to choose that, its of the same -or better- quality than OEM and not too pricey offcourse. OEM will also do just fine, as long as I can find them anywhere..!

    Here are some more links I found on eBay... Maybe they'll help:

    Hey dude, how's it goin'?

    You're saying that because the rotor diamater is quite big, that I should go with 2-piece rotors instead of monoblocks because they are less likely to get bent.

    I know what you mean and thanks for the headsup but, aren't they way expensive? :ermm: Maybe you guys know where I can a good set for as less $$$ as possible without sacrificing quality so much?

    Yeah I should probably go with two piece like Powerslave said...

    I would say whatever you choose.. go for a 2 piece rotor design. they are hella lighter. (well I had experience with W211 E55 rotors, comparing the stock to the Evosport 2 piece floating rotors, they were probably half the weight)
    anything to reduce rotating mass is just as good as reducing vehicle weight.
    *edit* wow those are some expensive 2 piece rotors!!

    Those prices are like double C43 rotors. They're around $280/piece aren't they?

    With these prices there is no way im going for two piece rotors... I was looking for sth between $200-250 a pair max, the postage costs will be very high too. Do you happen to have any ideas where I can find cheaper rotors? I cant seem to find any
