W220 track pads
So, in my insane research of things, I'm seeing that there are very few track pads for the W220 platform. Which is odd, because that caliper & pad shape is used ona lot of the smaller, sportier cars as well. No Hawks, no PFC's. G-Lock, Carbotech, and Project mu seem to be about the only options. And the padshape seems to be oddly Mercedes-specific for what looks like a Brembo caliper. Is anybody potentially aware of a 'generic' pad shape that will fit these calipers? Maybe there's a pad with the same shape and specs, without the cutouts for the padwear sensor or something? Thankfully I can get at least decent measurements off RockAuto for the pad shape. Time to start digging thru brembo catalogs.....
