I’ll be interested to calculate how much I will save from the braking setup and the wheels when I eventually change it all over. It is a heavy car yet feels so much lighter and more nimble than the GLA45 it replaces...

I was only joking as I have driven one and you have a fantastic car there.

Lol I can see why you would want the light ones having such a heavy car :drive1:
Lol

In all seriousness though, it’s rotating unsprung mass, which if memory serves is the equivalent to 4x sprung mass.

So 2.5kg saving per corner on a decent brake upgrade adds up. Also less sprung weight means it’ll handle the bumps better.

Yeah not sure on the exact figures but you are right Damo. I will weigh everything that comes off and goes on the car to see how much difference it makes
