I would recommend aftermarket pads. Less brake dust and some pretty darn good stopping power.

The E AMG guys go with either Akebono or Porterfield pads. You're choice. Good luck!

The previous consensous tends to lean toward the stock pads being the best for stopping power on our E63's. The E55's have a bunch of options for aftermarket pads but the E63 is limited to EBC or Posi-Quiet - these are the only two options I found when I was researching my recent front pad purchase and they are definitely cheaper than the stock pads.

The EBC Redstuff pads look pretty decent. Some people have reported the stopping power to be almost equivalent to the stock pads and there is a huge reduction in brake dust with the EBC pads.

I ended up just going with the stock pads.

EBC reds fronts for me.. works very well and low dust. You can get porterfield from Formymercedes.com a vendor here. EBC from the net at about 115$ for fronts.
