Best brake pads for performance without the dust ?
I want to change out my front pads and looking for others experience with replacement pads . I hate how much the mercedes pads shed material .....I don't do track days it's more a weekend car for me . Is there a decent set of pads the give good performance without all the dust ?

I have the Porterfield R4-S on my 2017 Coupe and they perform similar to stock with 80% less brake dust in front and about 50% less for the rear. I was hoping for less brake dust but it is still much better than stock.
I can go a week without my OCD kicking in and needing to clean my wheels. I find it strange that the rears get brake dust build up much faster than the fronts. I have heard others say the same thing. There is something about the rears on the w205 c63's that cause them to have more dust than the fronts.
I got better results from changing the pads on my last car which was a 2014 Jeep SRT. On this car the rears could go weeks without brake dust buildup.

Aside from the pad replacements, I've found that using a good wheel sealant helps minimize dust buildup. I've had good results using Dr. Beasley's Matte Wheel Seal on my black cross-spoke wheels.

I do wish the rears were as efficient as the fronts. My fronts still look clean after 2 weeks of driving.
