Brake upgrade help please.

[ddavidm]

Hi.

I have an opportunity to source a spare set of front discs / callipers from a C55 for a reasonable price. Would anyone know whether one could (relatively easily) fit these to the rear, to upgrade the puny little things on there as std?

Thanks

Dan

No.

You wouldn't want to upgrade the rear braking anyway, it could cause rear wheel lock, which would cause a spin.
The rear brakes only do ~30% of braking, so don't need to be powerful.

Must be late....logical of course....!

In which case, may just keep as a spare set or have a play with some powder coating. Thanks.
