Cut brake noise and dust on your everyday drives with the Wagner QuickStop ZD853 Ceramic Front Disc Brake Pad Set. It installs as a front-axle replacement for the 1996-2004 Mercedes-Benz E320, 1997 E420, 1998-1999 E300, 1998-2002 E430, 1998-2005 CLK320, 1999-2003 CLK430, 2001-2004 SLK320, and 2004-2008 Chrysler Crossfire (all engine options).
Wagner QS pads are designed and tested to restore like-new braking, using a 100% post-cure process for even friction performance across the life of the pad and an application-specific design that helps reduce noise-causing vibration.
- Ceramic friction: Delivers whisper-quiet stops and ultra-low dust compared to conventional semi-metallic pads during everyday street driving.
- Zero-copper formulation: Features Wagner's OE25 copper-free friction material.
- Ready to install: Includes pad shims and abutment clips, with slotted and chamfered edges to help control noise. Premium stainless-steel hardware and OE-style lubricant are included in most applications.
- OE fit and form: Application-specific materials engineered for consistent, even braking throughout the pad's life.
No pad wear sensor is included. As best practice, replace the front pads on both sides together as a matched set for even, balanced braking. Country of origin: United States.
