I have a set of these for sale brand new...I think they are for a C230 as they do not fit my C240. Made by Serro in Germany and are chrome instead of the powdercoat as seen above. If anyone is interested lemme know!

I hope the pagid pads go better for you than they did me. They were fine for about 5k miles then started squeaking and grinding really bad. Matt also had a similar experience with his pagid pads.

I've been on them over 25k miles. No big lip. I am satisfied. I use ATE coated rotors. Knock on wood

my mechanic did the brakes today. He put the new rotor on and just before installing the pads he used a pry bar on what i think was the brake piston or the rotor? It didnt come to my attention until i started thinking about. he wanted me to take my car to the shop he works at which i said no since i wanna watch. i DONT EVEN TRUST MY OWN UNCLE WHO WORKS AT JEEP DEALERSHIP. so did this ******* break my car?

Well you don't need to put a pad in front of the piston to compress it. I usually don't. Just take off the caliper and press the brake pedal to see if its still compressing properly.
