I've been using the akebono euro ceramic pads on brembo rotors up front. They have 40,000 miles on them and still look new.

I have normal Merc pads and I hate the dust. Ceramic pads produce half the dust right?

Are these the pads u guys were talking about?

Akebono Euro Ceramics make ZERO noise and essentially 99% less dust.

Is there any performance difference?
It seems that MB would use those stock but maybe they werent as popular when our cars were out.

I have the porterfield R4S on my c43 amg.
They work great but feels a little slippery?
Is this because of carbon fibre/titanium mixture?
I had my factory jurids they are awesome but way filthy in dusting the rims, they bite like a pitbull:p
cheers
