I had to replace the brake pads and rotors on my CLK500 at 28k miles. I replaced the stock pads with Pagid pads and they don't create half the brake dust the stock ones did. I thought Pagid was an OEM manufacturer but there was definately a difference in the amount of brake dust.

So which ones are better, Porterfield or Pagid?
Or is it preference? My car before buying had them replaced so I am not due for a while.
Also I am from Jersey, so once winter rolls around I have to switch from my performance tires. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Zaino or a good wax is a great idea for your wheels. I'm a dork - I tend to clean my wheels ~ 4x per week. A quick rinse and spray with spray detailer and a mf cloth.

After a couple of thousand miles now, much less brake dust !!
