front rotors are $260 a piece from parts.com (dealer price is $378)
rear rotors are $75 each.
stock front pads are $188 for the set. they don't seem to have the rear pads.
However, I would get akebono ceramic euro pads. Stock level of brake performance but basically no dust.
Tirerack has these for $160 front, $120 rear as a special price.
Sensors run about $5 and don't forget the MB brake paste.
cheers

something is fishy here.
For some reason I struggle to believe that rbrenton an get $378 rotors to your for $105.
That would mean that MB was marking then up about 270%.
A 14.2" MB (i.e. brembo) rotor for $105 is pretty unheard of.

easy partner.MB does not mark up brake rotors 270%.
If you got them for $105, congratulations, but that is certainly not the norm for S55 rotors.

I got my rotors from them. The Balo brand was the $430 shipped for all 4 rotors.
