Looking for brake pads for CLK 350

I have a 2007 with the Sports Appearance Package. I cannot find any after-market pads for this setup. When I check various providers, they don't seem to have pads for even the stock brakes let alone these. In fact, they don't seem to have anything for cars newer than 2004.

The stock pads are too soft for heavy braking like you run into on the track. I am not looking for racing pads. They need too much heat for use on the street. I need something that can work under both conditions.
