560SL akebono brake dust pads
Hi everyone, I just bought a 1988 560SL and learned I should use akebono brake pads to reduce brake dust. looks like these are hard to find since the company closed some plants. All the vendors I have contacted only have the rear set not the front. Any advise on finding some? what would be the best alterative? Thanks Mike
