Benz-Works Lightweight 2-Piece Floating Rotors & AMG steering wheel...
AMG Power House : BENZWÖRKS
Went to Serges NEW shop on Sat for install of both, Benz-Works Rotors are not only flat-out beautiful but I finally see what I've been missing ALL these years, IDK about the rest of you but I am extremely connected to my cars performance accross the board (I've read others reviews on similar products & honestly didn't expect what I actually got)

I thought the real world Post install difference vs STOCK Rotors (SL600 biturbo is the only 600 model that comes STANDARD w/AMG Calipers/Rotors) wouldn't be noticed in the daily type of surface street driving we ALL endure, I thought it'd be much more apparent in a twisty track type of setting etc..

Well, I was wrong & boy was I glad to be wrong in this instance.. The SL feels like she lost much, much, more than the actual 36 lb total unsprung weight loss. Directly after install I proceded to take her thru the paces, (Serges NEW
shop is surrounded by nothing but nice newer paved roads in modern industrial area)
(I brought a new steering wheel w/me that I bought elsewhere & Serge,
installed it lickity-split)

:naughty: So I took off down a completely empty stretch of road pedal to the metal, then a quick test of brakes (NEW Akebono pads @ all 4 corners) the SL
reacted much better vs STOCK, then a few shakedown hard turns w/slight drift-powerslides coming out of turns until traction was a bit of an issue. I quickly realized the BEAST was on a NEW level w/Vengence:X
Everything improved from Response/Acceleration/Braking/Handling etc it's
totally noticable to me, I'm extremely pleased w/the NEW Rotors etc Top that off with great time @ Benz-Works Serge, is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, & a genuine enthusiast on ALL things to do w/FAST autos. I'll def be back for more mods, Thank You very much Serge! The shop's beautiful very
impressive:y
