I wouldn't use aftermarket brake pads on an AMG car. Aftermarket parts typically aren't as well made and they don't last as long as OEM. OEM brake pads are good life insurance.

Brembo makes our OEM pads I believe. Or at least they did for my old '13 C63 sedan. Regardless, our factory pads are excellent. They bite harder, dust less and last much longer than I'd expected. My only gripe is that they'll occasionally squeak a bit while cold.

Don't overpay. FLAPS pads are much better these days since uniform industry standards were introduced a few years ago.
I've used most every good brand, they all have different personalities, but they all work fine.

I have a liking for EBC greenstuff as a DD, very effective in keeping the wheels cleaner
Aggressive, disc eating, short lifed, dirty pads that are proven to have a stopping distance 42 centimeters shorter, mebbe OEM? the mazdaspeed pads are made by Ferrodo, and go head to head with the aftermarlet pads but seriously, to get that kind of bite, you really are swapping discs and pads as a unit.
