I just received a PM from Racing Brake telling me that they have pads for the FRONT of my 2019 SL450, but NOT for the rear. Does this make sense to anyone?
Another member has suggested a company called Porterfield Brakes, in Costa Mesa, CA, which just happens to be a few miles from my home. I believe I will give their pads a try. I will report how they work.
I cannot deal with a company that can’t supply pads for all four wheels on my car.
I imagine the promised dust reduction would go really well with your new shiny wheels...

Google Power Stop brake pads.

Sorry, didn't realize you had a 2019. They do have pads for some of the previous years. Lots of Corvette owners with dust switched to Power Stop pads and were very pleased. Good luck.
