 |  Front Brakes I can't find Ceramic front pads for my 2007 SLK 350.I have talked to some parts stores and they don't have any acct.they say that there is to much heat to use Ceramic.I am not racing this car and am using just for every day driving. Can I use Ceramic or not? I'm tired of all the brake dust with the O.E.M. brake pads. If I can use Ceramic does anyone have a part # and place to buy? |

| search for user 'slktyperice' and 'brake pads' I recall him using ceramic brake pads, he said it was much better than OEM and no brake dust. |

Where'd you get your parts? Online or local parts store? Which brand did you get? I'm so sick of cleaning brake dust 4-5 times a week. Thanks! Mike | |
