What's a low dusk brake pad? Or do you mean a low dust brake pad? If so, then get a ceramic pad it will help eliminate the brake dust on yourn car.

I just bought a set of Porterfield rs-4 pads for the front and rear. I have not yet installed them (next week), but I have only heard good things. When I called Porterfield they said they sell a ton of pads to MB owners b/c of dust alone!

I used portfield on my CLS before i switched to my Brembo's, and it only made a slight difference.

It also created a bad wear pattern on my factory rotors, and they squeeked a little.

I have portfields on my 1999 ML430, and they squeeked allot at first, but got more quiet later on.

Akebono pads are great.
