No personal experience, but I hear that Green Stuff is hard on the rotors and will likely warp them.

I saw a CLK pull into The Wheel Supply one time with Green Stuff, and his rotors were wasted! :confused:

UUmmmmmm..... now you telling me... any suggestion aside from Porterfield? If there's no other then I think I'll just get the same one I got now w/c Porterfield. My current pads lasted for 3 years and it's really worth it. :bored: ;) :)

I know someone who had EBC green on his CLK 320 and it tore up his rotors. I had Porterfields and didn't like them...lost brake feel, didn't brake well, and sqeeked quite a bit. I went back to stock. :)

Dwang hasn't had problems with his Axxis Metalmasters.

MOE -

I was using the Axxis with cross-drilled rotors before I upgraded to the AP-Racing 6-piston 14" kit. I then had Porterfield make me a custom set of R4S pads for the kit.

Yes, please call your shop. It is hard to find pads for the c43 cause it uses the same brakes as the AMG E55.

Cuz actully the people from www.irotors.com are sometiems don't really know what they r doing and they couldn't find the one pin Axiss for my C280
but since ur car is C43 it might be defferent case.
