Default After-market Brake Pads...

Too much brake dust!!! Does anyone know of some good quality after-market brake pads that will cut down on the dust? If so, where can I get them?

Thanks

I lost the e-mail address, but I inquired at a Aftermarket Mercedes Parts Dealer on the internet who had crematic pads fit the X-fire, about $99.00 a set. Should be an old thread somewhere in here. I believe Someone here had used similar pads on a Prowler. But, know of no one who has actually used them on the X-Fire

"rotex gold" pads are what i am using (black in color) for the front and rear of my crossfire...part numbers are the same as an 03' slk 320 m/b.

95% less dust. "brakewarehouse.com"

from what i have been told the "ebc" pads wear out rather quickly...you might want to try the rotex brand next.

cheers!
