Recommendations for Front Pans and Rotors

2003 S55 AMG

I need cleaner and just as quiet.

The rotors are well worn along with the pads. This is the 4 pad / 8 piston calipers

I don't know if I should stick with OE Rotors & pads or not.

Thanks in Advance

Tom

Tom you will find Brembo rotors on the web for your car. They look to my well worn eyes to be the same product as MB offers for less dough.

I have heard good things about EBC red stuff pads.

They work great, fill the stock 20" wheel.
The Tire Rack offers this kit. Brembo rotors on hats, Brembo six piston calipers sized for the rotors. Brake line to match. This is a bolt-on kit that went on as promised with zero drama.
FYI.... I did the 405MM rotors and Brembo six piston calipers kit for my 221 S-65.
