Brakes and rotors
What are people doing for brake pads and rotors besides the regular oem? I have been searching for Brembo who has never let me down and I can only find rotors for some reason brake pads for a 2021 gle 63 don’t seem to be available

Seems quite a few people use FCP Euro as they have a lifetime warranty and they carry OEM which is compelling if you keep it long enough to utilize it.
I purchased OEM from MB Part Source (which shipped from MB of Laredo) for about 20% less as I do not believe I will keep it long enough to utilize their lifetime warranty. Rotors, pads and sensors cost me about $1600 w/tax & shipping FWIW

I did them myself. Jacking it up, supporting the vehicle and removal / reinstallation of the wheels takes longer than the time put into replacing the pads and rotors
