W116 bigger brakes?
 
I have a European spec W116 350SE with 16 inch 8-hole Mercedes wheels. Is there a logical bigger rotor and caliper set up anyone has installed on a W116?

I think the brakes from a second generation W126 are larger and will fit a W116. I'm not sure if the master cylinder and booster from a second generation W126 needs to be used in conjunction with the rotors and calipers.

Since you have 16" wheels, you won't have to worry about the rotors being too large to clear the stock 14" wheels.

Thank you
 
That sounds like a good suggestion.
