For people that dont know. On mercedes you cant remove the wheel until you get the studs off. The studs have a shoulder that retains the wheel

This usually happens on rims that have been chromed.
The only way to remove the broken bolts is to use a drill or a torch (be careful, neither option is easy) once the shoulder has been removed by either method, the threaded portion will easily spin out.
I have had this happen many times, clear your calender.
It seems that the shoulders chemically seize to the wheel, it is not likely to be caused by over tightening.

for my section, i'd take the Mercedes. Lexus only are not as prestigious as Mercedes-Benz. The Audis are also positive, and so are the BMWs. i'd take the Mercedes-Benz AMG over the Audi because they offer the impact of being extra proper, and over the BMW as a rule because i'm prepared on AMG. yet truly, it is style of a tie between BMW and Mercedes-Benz. yet you're style of being unfair to the different manufacturers, because you're preserving any 4-door AMG Mercedes-Benz. that includes the S65 AMG, which expenditures $2 hundred,000 and has between the most advantageous and greatest engines in production on the prompt. That automobile may squash each of the others in words of overall performance, luxurious, and seems, so that you aren't to any extent further truly being honest to the different manufacturers. for my section, i'd take both the CLS AMG, or the E class AMG. The S-class AMG fashions are above your funds, i visit inform, from the different autos indexed the following. The record from acceptable to good: a million. Mercedes-Benz AMG (CLS, C, E, instructions) 2. BMW (M3 and M5 fashions) 3. Audi RS4 and RS6 (tied with Lexus IS-F) 4. Lexus IS-F (tied with Audi RS4 and RS6)

If the "behind the discs" idea does not work, you could try drilling them and then extracting them with a stud extractor (thats like a left-hand-threaded screw). Use a drill about 50% of the stud's dia for this though!

as far as I know, mercedes uses wheel bolts. you remove the others and get the tire out of the way. if the piece of the bolt is stuck in the rotor, I would drill it and use an ez out.

you might be looking at an e-z out if they're threaded in, otherwise de-mount the disc assemblies and take em to a shop to have em pressed out...consult your owner's manual or your local mercedes shop for what type they are...I think most are press-fit, but check to be sure...

They are gonna have to come out the back. If you try to heat and freeze your gonna end up replacing some warped rotors also.
