Hi all,

Just need some advice again. My C63 need new discs and pads. What ones are good? Standard ones or anything just above standard?

Thank you.

Get a price from your local main dealer, Mercedes-Benz of Edinburgh, Mercedes-Benz of Newcastle - the latter two being on eBay too.

If buying aftermarket, I’d stick to Brembo, try all the usual online parts suppliers and your local motor factors.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the Mercedes prices for OEM discs/pads

Not if it's a performance pack you won't

I personally recommend EBC yellow stuff pads. I won a set a few years back.....since then I've put them on every car my family has had and several customers cars. Good wear...not hard on the discs....great stopping power especially when they get to the point that other pads start to fade. The only thing to be aware of is the slightly strange breaking procedure......and they can be quite dusty.

As far as discs go.....and I know this wont be popular with the "only put genuine Mercedes air in your tyres or you will die" brigade on here..............but I've never really noticed any difference in stopping power regardless of which discs used.....just don't buy the really cheap eBay/Chinese ones.....which have been know to warp prematurely and get ones with treated hubs to stop the ugly brown rust and you wont go far wrong. A spinning disc of steel is a spinning disc of steel......just a pity they don't make stainless steel ones so they look good forever.....don't know why they don't......motorcycles have not used anything else in decades.
