Dustless pads for an '06 C230???

I can not seem to find the Axxis Deluxe pads for the '06 C230 and they are only ones I'm familiar with. Anyone have a suggestion that will accomodate the sensors and don't cost an arm and a leg?

Brake pads.

I used MINTEX brake pads (bought on Ebay) on my 00CLK. Less dust, same stop distance (as I see, as OEM pads). I hear that AXXIS pads will make noise after it set in (a few hundred miles).

Mintex does not make front pads for the '06 or newer C230. Looking for something low dust.

Have you tried posting your question in the W203 section? You may get more responses there since that's where most of the folks that have your car hang out.

I just purchased an 06 C230SS and may want to change pads in the future also.

check out tirerack.com (there's a toll-free # on the site and ask for jason)! i replaced my stock rotors with brembo sport slotted rotors and hawk pads (comparable to axxis) - i'm very pleased with the performance, little brake dust and inexpensive to boot. Good luck!
