Time for a brake job...
To do the job, I'm going to assemble a package that includes new rotors, front and rear, new pads, front and rear, and new sensors, front and rear. I'll grab a few new rotor screws too. Going to flush brake fluid as well. Car is street only, though I do drive it in a spirited manner through the canyon and mountain roads locally.
Autohaus AZ seems to have some pretty good deals, but I have some confusion on what would be the right rotor for the car given their descriptions. BTW, never bought from them. Any reviews from this crowd?
I'm looking at three rotor options for the front. They offer two different options from VNE, just not sure which is the correct ones for the car (they both look like the right ones for the car). Here are the model numbers and links:

They also offer a Brembo set that do not look like the ones on the car, but look like a better performance option for about the same amount of money:

As for rear rotors, the decision is a little easier. I think I will go with the Zimmerman set:

Then the pads. Just looking for quality performance street pads. These are the ones I'm considering:
Front: https://www.autohausaz.com/pn/P50127N
Rear: https://www.autohausaz.com/pn/355015721
Then for brake fluid. I'm partial to ATE 200, but understand there is a Mercedes branded DOT 4 Plus that might be a better option. Is it required or can I just go ATE 200?
Also, can someone confirm when AMG specifies brake pad replacement (mm). Sensor has not gone off yet, but all pads are just a hair thiner than the backing plate which is usually my standard.
Thanks in advance!

I'll cross check what FPC Euro is selling them for.
Thanks again!
