Brake pads Akebono or POWER STOP

I put carbon ceramic brakes from power stop on my C63. They were an improvement over stock and best of all no dust.

I upgraded to the akebono pads, and blank rotors. I have been satisfied, and would recommend this combination

15k miles on powerstop “street sport” whatever pads with raybestos painted and coated rotors. Powerstop shoes and drums in the rear. All well so far, hardware appeared quality, pads have a little more bite than whatever was on it when I bought it.

You also absolutely can not go wrong with Akebono, that is also top quality stuff.

Absolutely love em, and I abuse them, they still last

I have had great luck with the full ceramic power stop kit as well.

I've used Powerstop in the past and like them. Good stopping power, low dust, good price.

I have Akebono ceramic euro pads on my S-Class and absolutely love them. They last, great stopping power, and literally no dust!

Example: Akebono makes Hondas brake pads, buying the OE set is around $145, straight from akebono is around $60.

The only pad I've found that has both low dust and *okay* bite is Akebono Euro ceramic. They still bite less aggressively than most stock semi-metallic pads, and *way* less bite than any sort of track pad. But they're very easy on rotors, dust little, and can actually stand up to 15-20 min track sessions without falling apart.
