2000 Ml 320 brakes

I plan to do the front brakes on the ML this weekend and need to order the parts now. The car has 68k on the clock. Is it wise to turn the rotors, or replace or just to relplace the pads and forget the rest? I also would like to know what brand of pad to use. I am pretty sure I can handle this job, but I don't know what brake pads to use. Also shoul I use anti squeal paste on these? I have an unused tube made by CRC. How does one apply this stuff as I have it but have never used it before? Thanks

I liked the Satsfied pro ceramic brake pads. Great life and no dust (also very quiet). In fact, I have a leftover BRAND NEW front set from my old 1999 ML430 still in my garage (box and all). If they will fit, I would be happy to part with them VERY cheap, as they do not work on my new ride (2007 ML 350). Bought them and then ended up trading in the truck before I needed to change them.

Oh and on the rotors, it depends on what pads you have on there in terms of how long they last. With ceramic pads you can do front rotor changes every other pad change, but may need to do them everytime with stockers. No need to have them turned if they are above the minimum spec and do not vibrate.
