New to this forum. Can someone recommend good low dusting ft brake pads for a 98 C230? I'm going to be due in about 2-3k miles and need to order now. Planning to replace pads and rotors.
I was told to buy factory rotors at about $48 each and aftermarket low noise low dust pads...but what kind? ...and where to get them?

PBR PBR PBR PBR PBR PBR!!!!!!! I have them in front and they are excellent. They stop just as well as Pagid but make hardly any brake dust. My rear wheels actually get dirtier than my front now. You can literally go a month without washing your wheels and they will still be clean. Make sure you get the plain organic one's. I got mine from www.bimmerzone.com

Edit: get the Deluxe one's.

Here are the exact pads from there for $37.81.

Oops. I just realized you said 98, I thought you said 99. They only have PBR metal master for your car. I haven't tried those but if they are anything like the deluxe pads they are great. Metal Master is actually supposed to be their best pad.

how is ytheir stopping power compared to stock

If you mean stock by Pagid, Textar, and what not, They're the same. Less noise, less dust.

Thanks Doug. I will get those on my next change too! That'll be a ways down though... but i'll make it worth while and get the drilled rotors for the fronts too!

What about Mintek(sp?) red pads?? I was told they're very good...low noise..low dust and good pricing.
