2017 AMG C63

2017 AMG C63

I bought my 2017 AMG C63 new and currently have 15,000 miles on it. I have already put two sets of tires on it and they now say it needs brakes? Is this normal? I have never raced the car and drive it conservatively. I have never heard of brakes going out at 15,000 miles. Can anyone help?

Wrong section. This is the w204 section. Nothing here is newer than 2015.

At least for the w204, 2 sets of tires and brakes (pads) at 15k seems pretty normal.

@dogfan82, what kind of tyres did you have and change to? What kind of roads are you driving on? One man's conservative driving could be another man's spirited driving...

Is your suspension modified? Alignment within spec?

Are they saying your front or rear brakes need to be replaced? Going through two sets of rear tires and needing rear brakes I could understand (because it sounds like you don’t really drive conservatively, or think you are and are hitting T/C).
