Default Dustless brake pads for 2007 SLK55

I am looking for dustless pads for my SLK55. I had great performance from my PBR deluxe on my SLK32. The only aftermarket pads I can find for the 55 are EBC redstuff. Has anyone experienced these and are they as good on performance and dust as the PBR? Any other aftermarket pads fit the bill?

Here is a thread started by DSB about posi-quiet ceramic pads with his installation and then a review on the pads themselves.

I also have these pads on my 55 and am very happy with them. They have performed very well and produce very little dust in the process.

My experience of EBC pads has always been poor to say the least. In my previous Lotus circles they are regarded as a bit of a joke with Pagid earning the most respect for preformance but probably not dust !
Are these SLK55 posi pads available in the UK ?

I bought them through www.irotors.com. You can check with them on shipping, I just looked and didn't see a shipping info page or much about it in the FAQ page but you can call or email them. They responded pretty quickly to my questions during the transaction.
