Mercedes Benz S550 Disc Brake Kit in US

A complete disc brake kit for the Mercedes Benz S550 is the most efficient way to perform a full axle disc brake service on your S550. The friction components, rotor surface finish, pad compound, and caliper hardware on the Mercedes Benz S550 all function as an integrated system. Sourcing each element separately for the S550 introduces compatibility variables that manifest as brake noise, vibration, or inconsistent pedal feel in the first months of service on your Mercedes Benz S550.

What Is Included in the Mercedes Benz S550 Disc Brake Kit

The kit for your Mercedes Benz S550 includes front or rear disc brake rotors at OEM or performance specification for the S550, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation compound-matched to the Mercedes Benz S550 rotor specification, a caliper hardware kit with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the S550, brake lubricant for correct caliper pin and shim installation on your Mercedes Benz S550, and rotor mounting hardware where required by the Mercedes Benz S550 application.

Three Kit Levels for the Mercedes Benz S550

OEM Replacement Disc Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz S550

Restores factory braking performance exactly on your Mercedes Benz S550, the correct specification for everyday commuting and family use of the S550 in American conditions.

Antirust Coated Disc Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz S550

The most practical choice for American Mercedes Benz S550 drivers. Zinc-coated or e-coated rotor surfaces on the S550 resist the rust that plain rotors develop within days of road salt exposure on your Mercedes Benz S550, maintaining consistent friction performance through multiple winter seasons.

Performance Disc Brake Kit for the Mercedes Benz S550

Uses cross-drilled and slotted rotors with high-performance pads for Mercedes Benz S550 drivers who tow, drive mountain roads, or generate sustained braking temperatures beyond what factory-spec rotors manage effectively on the S550.

Why Correct Hardware Is as Important as the Friction Components on the Mercedes Benz S550

Caliper slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips on the Mercedes Benz S550 are the most commonly overlooked components in a brake service and the most common cause of brake noise complaints after a pad change on the S550. Sticking slide pins on your Mercedes Benz S550 prevent the caliper from floating freely, causing the outer pad to wear faster than the inner. Every GeoBrakes disc brake kit for the S550 includes fresh hardware as a standard component.

Signs the Disc Brake Kit on Your Mercedes Benz S550 Is Due

• Vibration or pulsation through the S550 brake pedal during stops

Frequently Asked Questions - Mercedes Benz S550 Disc Brake Kits

Should I buy a front kit, rear kit, or both for my Mercedes Benz S550?

Front brakes on the Mercedes Benz S550 handle 60 to 70 percent of braking force and wear faster than the rear. If only one axle on your S550 is due for service, buy that kit. If both axles on the Mercedes Benz S550 need service simultaneously, combining them in one order above $99 qualifies for free US-wide delivery.

What rotor type should I choose for my Mercedes Benz S550 in American conditions?

For everyday commuting on your Mercedes Benz S550, an antirust coated OEM kit is the most practical choice, delivering factory-level performance while resisting the corrosion plain rotors develop rapidly on the S550 in road salt conditions. For towing or performance driving with your Mercedes Benz S550, a drilled-and-slotted performance kit provides improved heat management.

How long do disc brake kits last on a Mercedes Benz S550?

Under normal American driving, a quality disc brake kit on the Mercedes Benz S550 typically lasts 50,000 to 70,000 kilometres. Antirust coated kits tend to last longer on the S550 because corrosion is a major cause of early rotor replacement on American Mercedes Benz S550 vehicles.
