bite the bullet and wash once a week instead of going to aftermarket pads....less hassle.

I would stay away from EBC Green Stuff - those are generally harsh on the rotors -



While another option would be to wash your wheels weekly, there is also a braking performance gain to be had with upgraded pads as well.

I have powerstop discs on mine. You can order them Xdrilled only or Xdrilled and vented. I don't feel much improvement so far.

before you get too deep into this, it's time to ask the show vs. go question.

Also, there's a thread here asked by slk320, on aftermarket brakes...search around, should cover lots.

edit: actually, just look down the page in this forum...you should see it.

He asks about brakes for his slk, but the info's just as pertinent to the 202.
