Porterfields RS4 Brake Pads

Hi guys, I've done a search but can't find the best place to buy the Porterfield RS4 Brake Pads. In one of the posts, someone mentioned that they may offer MBWorld members a 20% discount, I contacted Porterfield and they said they were not award of this discount and do not offer it. Furthermore, they gave me two versions of the pads, one for 2 pad fronts, and the other for 4 pad fronts. Which version do we have??


There is two options for that year Mercedes
2 Pad Front Caliper
Front AP 847 R4-S $169.95 and Rear AP 984 R4-S $129.95
Or
4 Pad Front Caliper
Front AP 983 R4-S $379.95 and Rear AP 984 R4-S $129.95

Best place to buy?

You knew through my original post that I was shopping for both the front and rear pads. Why would you make such an offer to sell but neglect to state that it's not for a set but just the fronts?

I know you've done good on your deals on this board. However, I would like to suggest that you be a little bit more mindful when quoting prices on this board.
I think you over reacting. I clearly understand that his price is 340 plus shipping instead of 4 Pad Front Caliper Front AP 983 R4-S $379.95

My apologizes Jerry,

I did not see that you asked for the rears as well, my sincere apologizes as that was a mishap on my part.

$340 for the fronts, and $115 for the rears.

I'll even pay your sales tax if you would like to order them...

cheers

I ordered mine directly from them last week for 20% off. I'm sure you know someone in the SCCA, Porsche Club, or BMW Club that will loan you their member number so you can get the discount.
