After Market Brake Pads for CLS???
Has anyone ever installed after market brake pads for their CLS?
I am really getting tired of all the brake dust from OEM pads and also, OEM pads don't seem to last very long. I am thinking of trying out EBC Red Stuff. I really like them when I had them on my Lexus SC430.
Any thoughts or recommendation?

In October 2012 I installed Centric Posi-Quiet Ceramic Brake Pads front and rear and so far dont have any problems and they produce very little dust...

I've got Porterfields on my car and they have been great compared to the stock brakes. Dust is a lot less as well. Haven't had any problems with them. I'm going to order another set soon as these are about to go.

Didn't really notice any difference except for less dust...

I decided to go with EBC Redstuff to play it safe since I had some experience with them. We'll see how it goes.
As for Porterfield, I heard some good stuff about them. Maybe next time.
I will post a review about EBC Redstuff after I install them. It maybe a while since my pads still have about 20%-30% left.
