2032 fit fine in mine as well. I noticed the remote lock button was not working from more than a few car lengths when cold and decided it was time before I ran into other issues.
I just did brakes on my 2017 330. I got Brembo rotors, and Akebono pads. They're excellent brakes, akebono pads are highly recommended, and Brmebo holds its own.
I just changed them out for zimmerman blanks and akebono pads. I will likely do the same for the front to decrease some of the dust as well. Slightly less initial bite on the pads, but still good brake feel.
I used to get Akebono pads for my SLK32 from RockAuto.com . Their prices were reasonable and shipping within the US was reasonable.
The best pads out there right now are the Wagner OEX pads cuz they're built on a galvanized steel backing plate with a mechanical fastening system for the friction material instead of glue. They don't rust out like plain steel pads
I have changed my own pads and rotors. It’s a relatively easy job when you got the tools. Try and get akebono pads. They are ceramic pads which means clean wheel with no black dust and they dont chew on the rotors.
Akebono if you don't want to wash your wheels every few days. Plus they last forever.
Akebono. Soooo much less dust than others.
Bought some Akebono Ultra pads and wheels look great all the time! Didn't notice any drop off in performance
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.
