Just an FYI for anyone that cares:

I bought the Centric Premium high carbon front rotors for E550. Part 128.35118 - these are the same as the Stop Tech, same part number and everything.

Best price I found on JC Whitney, but I had to chat with their support because it said not compatible with the E550, and would not let me continue. After this I was able to apply 20% coupon with free shipping found from google search, so got a pair for $172 total!

I'm using the Car Quest Platinum Ceramic pads kit from Advance Auto Parts, as they have tons of discounts, and I've had good experience with that line. I think about $40 after some discounts and loyalty credits.

So a little over $200 for all new front rotors and pads, hopefully they hold up better than OEM.
