Front rotors and pads for P30

Hi I live in europe and looking for new front rotors, pads and sensors for a 2009 C63 whit P30.

Can someone link to the best price for OEM stuff that shipps international.

If there is cheaper than OEM I could imagine to buy slotted rotors becuase the OEM ones in my opinion are not could. I have got cracks all over.

I want something cheap becuase im going to sell the car.

Just put the stock non p30 rotors on. They are the same price and around 80% cheaper than the two piece.

what year is your C63?
I buy rotors for my C63 and SL63 from www.parts.com and still get them shipped to Qatar. With shipping, the rotors are much cheaper than ones where I am from

However, parts.com do not ship international. I use mail forwarding address websites in the USA such as www.usamail1.com . usamail1, or any USA mail forwarding service, will give you a physical address in the USA where you can shop for anything in the USA and get it shipped to your USA mailbox, and then from your USA mailbox to where you are.

Is it the same performance? Same pads?

Any other options?

Are the p30 2-piece rotors different than the p31 rotors.

Yes, the P30 rotors are true bolted-together, IIIRC the P31 rotors are the cast-in-place (I say"1.5 piece") style.

I remembered Mort posted this link that explains the P31 brake rotor technology:

Thanks. That's what I figured... just making sure. 1.5-piece seems like an appropriate description.

I'll check out the link.

from what i've heard, the non p30 rotors don't fit the p30 cars. it would be fantastic if i was wrong, though.

Um, berber, id suggest you watch yourself with the personal attacks.

To the OP, despite berb taking personal pot shots at me even though he doesn't even know who I am, I asked a couple of parts depts this very question out of curiosity in the past and they told me they don't fit. Of course, they could have an ulterior motive, and of course id love it if they were incorrect, which is what I posted previously. Just passing along info that I gathered, which I thought was the purpose of these forums.

Name calling is unacceptable and it will stop now. An apology would be appropriate. Future posts may reflect as much disagreement in opinion as you wish, but must not include insults. Move on and all should engage in a more positive community spirit. Thank you.

Wow! What is the difference between both? Is the rotor made of ceramic? Sorry for the N00b question

Yes the two rotors are the same. Only difference is one is a two piece and the other is a solid rotor.

They are interchangeable.

We have Giro Disc 2 piece rotors in stock that are direct replacement for the P30 and standard rotors.

They weigh less and are directional (whereas OEM is not).

I have just one question, are the brakes from parts.com the same quality as OEM ? or even are those exactly same as I can get from deler ?

Not now, but once I will need to replace them, I want to have things sorted out.

I just dont want to find out , that those are some cheap **** ?
