Any ZERO dust pads available for the w204 C63?

I have newer OEM rotors and pads on the car. The dust is disgusting.
I can't recall the brand of pads I was able to buy for my SL63 that got rid of the dust problem, think it started with an A.

Akebono. But they do compromise stopping power and pedal feel -- fyi.

Go with Porter Field RS4 pads. Little dust and good braking characteristics

Porterfields have been working out really good for me. Much less dust then oem and no squeaking/sqealing ever. Oem pads would have my wheels super dusty in like 2 days of regular driving. Porterfields are good for around a week (as long as your not braking super hard, good for daily driving)

These akebono pads look quite interesting and have a good rep with the e55 crowd. If they have a good bite, can produce less dust then porterfiled and are available for the c63 then Ill be trying them out as my next pad

No, seriously don't go from Porterfields to these. Your Porterfields are far superior outside of being a bit more dusty.

i had porterfield r4s on my w202 and hardly noticed any dust at all and the brake stopping power was awesome. had to warm them up a little to get the full effect but once warm they were very nice and linear.

did not have bite like oem pad but i preferred the control. I would think the akebono ceramic wont have bite either and stopping power will be even less or so ive heard. but if you dont drive it like you stole it or go to the track the akebono may work out for you. remember many people who like them just daily drive the car and dont want to deal with dust. if performance is you priority, dont go akebono. get hawk, porterfield, or OEM.


i plan to go porterfield r4s when my w205 pads are up.
