C43 Sedan Brake pads?

Are there any aftermarket brake pads for the 2017 AMG C43?

The stock dust is killing me, my 19" AMG rims get dirty after a day of driving after I wash them.

Looked at Hawk and Akebono and they don't show anything.

I also want the brake performance to be somewhat the same stopping power as stock, but I could compromise I guess without all the nasty brake dust.

porterfield r4s. carbon ceramic compound. more expensive, but much lest dust and higher performance.

Thanks for the info Star4life...

I was on the Porterfield site and they did not show any brake pads for the 2017 C43.

Is there a model number for the pads that fit the C43?

Thanks again I hope this can work out for me.

you will need to call them. most likely they will need to custom make them if they havent done them yet. i used them on my w202 and loved them. when the times comes i will be buying from them. if they dont have them yet i will send them an old brake pad from my car to copy the layout and make the pads.

Yes that sounds like a plan, from what I read those pads seem to really good. Better than hawk or Akebono, though I have never tried either of those I did some research on this forum.

Thanks for the excellent info
