AKEBONO pads for C220

Hey all,

is anybody experienced in using AKEBONO brake pads on Mercedes Benz C220 CDI (w204) instead of OEM ones?

Thanks for hints

I don't think you can go wrong with Akebono.

Thanks, I hope so. But are not there any problems with shape or dimensions?

I use them on my 05 C230 with no issue, they also come with pad sensors so no need to get any from the dealer. Mine is ceramic, stops great.

Have them on 4 of my cars, and my kid has them on his car.

Nice!

... thanks all of you for encouraging replies. Just one faintness - is it necessary to replace OEM rotors for drilled?
I will have to solve the main probleme. As I live in Europe, Czech need to find nearest dealer of AKEBONO products. Untill now no idea.
