I’m at 155,000km and I’m about to replace my OEM rotors and pads this month with DBA slotted rotors + DBA XP/SP brake pads. I do 75% highway driving and I never have to brake hard.
I replaced the front rotors and pads with factory Brembo at 45k. When the rears needed replacement at 55k, I replaced the front and rear rotors and pads with PowerStop Z26. Couldn’t be happier with the swap - less dust and better stopping than stock.
Just replace the rears with the same brake pads aftermarket really suck. They do wear out fast but their worth it. Rotors get them Online their about $250 for two rear rotors and brake pads runs around $300 for the Euro pads for the Dynamic Edition.
Zimmermann cross-drilled rotors and Brembo pads were ironically the best priced option for my car lol.
I got Brembo pads for my 2012 S550. Under $200CAD for front and rear Brembo pads
Brembo and Zimmermann are nice. Used them on a couple vehicles me and my family owned. No complaints.
Get brembo disk as well as ive noticed only pads on other disc are okay but with brembo disc and pads they have amazing stopping power i only had them installed 5 days ago im shoocked how good the brakes have become!
Compared to my old pads, which felt very mushy and all or nothing, the brembos are extremely linear but also stop a lot better, and more consistently. They aren't going to make your car an f1 car but they are excellent and what they need to do and be.
Mine squeal sometimes at 5-15mph. Stock Brembo pads too.
Dba xp pads with dba t3 rotors, but wouldn't use them again they dust like hell
