I am doing the ugrade to the front brakes on our 190E 2.6 using the front brakes from the 400E/E420. I know I will need knew rotors, pads, and calipers.

What year and model should I be looking for as a replacement for the front brakes. I saw different rotors for:
92 400E w124 v8
93 400E w124 v8
94-95 E420 w124 v8

so which one to use? Is it safe to assume that the 94-95 E420 were probably better. But I need to make sure that 15" wheels will still fit on them for the winter time.

I plan on using the 15x7 OE MultiSPoke wheels Luke from TIreRack has for $35. I was told the 15x6 that come with the 190E would not fit, and since i have dustshields, i m sure the heat build up will be incredible even though they are ventilated.

Any helps appreciated. Thanxs.
