Anyone Selling W211 FRONT BRAKES &/or ROTORS ??
In desperate need of front brake pads and rotors. Used stock ones, or a really good deal on new ones for my 06' E55. I have someone to do the labor but i really cant afford the prices of a Dealership brake job.

The Rotors new from the dealer is only $130 each, as for the front pads you have a few options, EBC red $150, akebono $195, OEM less then $100
let me know if you need us to ship them out to you.

Do the rotors need to be swapped out at MB dealer or it's a DIY job? James can you PM me the price on all 4 rotors and OEM pads for an 06 CLS55.
Thanks.
Thanks.

How are the other pads (Porterfield, EBC Red, etc) in comparison to stock as far as dusting, grabbing power, rotor wear, etc.?

porterfields perform but are dustier than the EBCs. The EBCs don't grab as well but are clean. Matter of personal choice. I went from OEM to porterfield to EBC and back to Porterfield but then again, I'm not known for clean wheels....

DIY for sure. I am taking mine off right now (EVOSport ones) to put the OEMs back on for a lease return. Keep in mind that the rear caliper bolts are aimed so that you may need to lift the car to get leverage. Other than that, many here do their own..
