I need to get new brake pads. I currently have Axxis Deluxe.. I was thinking about getting green Stuff Pads. They are about $150 shipped for fronts and rears... I want to get Ceramic, dustless and silent... I know they are tons of pads which are cheaper. can anyone suggest a good alternative. That is silent and dustless.
thanks
thanks

does your current axxis squeak? mine squeaks every time i brake, it's been good for the first 5,00 miles and after it started to squeak. really annoying! ![Getlost](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/getlost.gif)

another option with what Ive been selling along with rotors are Posi-quiet pads, which have the same description as the Axxis Deluxe pads as well

+1 for the akebono euro's.
i had axxis deluxe on my former benz and they were great for dust by not real stopping power. the akebono's are perfect. i've had them for a while now and i love them.
i believe the correct part number is EUR918 for the fronts.

when I did the mini-research on the pads, I remember that EBC's stuff was the best in my case, but I drive hard at times, so I would sacrifice the dust/noise for performance... I know this is not much help, but that's all I can remember of the top of my head now.
Keep us in the loop on what you decide, Eugene!![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)
BTW did Axxis wear your rotors too much? I've heard they can warp stock rotors very easily
