bobhammer...I've used ebc red on my c230 and can report great results with low dusting and equivalent stopping power by feel. 20m mile and still more than half left. I hope to change out the GLK pads this spring or summer and I'll definitely use ebc again.

Been running Porterfield R4S on the front. Car mostly runs highway miles and I have about 80k miles on these pads. No dust and better braking.

Gotta check my brake pads. After a year they were barely worn. I might sell car before I have to change them. lol
