Need some ceramic "low dust" brake pads.
Hi there from Japan,
I need a set of F&R ceramic "low dust" or "dustless" brake pads for my 04 S500.
I searched the forums and tried most of the places recommended including
AutohausAz and parts.com but to no joy.
Anyone else have any ideas of a supplier.
Some places won't ship overseas but that is no problem as I have a US shipping address.
Regards

THANKS EVERYONE
I tried the Tire Rack as suggested for Akebono pads.
They very quickly responded and have no problems shipping overseas.
EUR847: Akebono Euro Ceramic Pads at $84.00 (Front)
EUR986: Akebono Euro Ceramic Pads at $78.00 (Rear)

If you wanna go cheap with a lifetime warranty, the Duralast Gold pads are decent. I've got em' on my S, and they've been better than the OE pads in terms of dust.
I know, it's AutoZone, but they're decent. I just had to go on a 700 mile trip and the day bedfore my brake pad warning came up on the dash so I had to get a set quick. I've been impressed for what I've paid.

MBWorld Fanatic!
Yes, and believe it or not they are not bad
When I did my brakes on the 600, the EBC reds that were sent to me were wrong. Go figure. Well I had the car ripped apart and wanted to fix it now, so Autozone Duralasts to the rescue. They even had them in stock
On a side note, they are low dust, CHEAP about $70, and not a bad pad.
Although they did fade after 4 laps at beaverun, I think the stockers or EBC would have to. SImply toooooo much damm weight
