I have a 2012 C63 AMG with the AMG development package. About 38k miles and time to replace the brakes.
Some questions: can anyone recommend some pads that will fit and possibly generate less brake dust? The OEM ones get my rims crazy dirty after a few days of driving. I don't do any track days or anything, maybe just some aggressive driving here and there.
Also, do the rears wear as quick as the fronts? Wonder if I should just replace all 4 at the same.
Haha. I have porterfield R4S. Much less dust. They kind of feel like the OEM pads but don't hold up to hard driving as well. A few hard applications from deep into triple digits and I start to get a lot of pad transfer, unlike the stock pads. Porterfields are a good street pad but I think the OEMs suited me better. Maybe next time I will try Endless pads (not sure which model yet as I haven't needed to shop for them).
Are the pads different on a PPP and non PPP car
Mine. Need changing but not the discs before some track action.
I was under the impression the difference was only the disc ?
Porterfield RS4. I went to them. Great stopping power and wayyyy less dust than OEM.
I ended up buying these off TopBrakes. Bought for the 2 piece rotor - hope that was the correct choice, I was unsure. Sounds like you have the same car I do (2012 P31)
