C63 Newbie - Replacement Break Pads
Hi all,
First post as I have only just acquired my first C63 amg coupe (2012 plate - 125edition).
The rear pads could use replacing in the next couple of months and just looking for advice on brands to target/avoid, pitfalls to look out for?
To add some context, I'll rarely be getting out to a track and so use the car for day to day social driving and (short range) business commuting.
Any advice much appreciated

I agree with the above. I faced the same dilemma while making the purchase also and am doing my brake change tomorrow. I opted for the brembo pads for my ml63 and have heard good things about them . From experience on other cars stay away from pads made for the track and stick to something reputable or to be safe genuine.

Really just any brake pad will do for you. Stoptech would be one option. A step up would be Porterfield.
