Rotor and pad combo suggestions for M Performance brake

Pdxway · 11-05-2018, 12:37 PM

Hi all,

I have M Performance brake setup. My pads are 4mm now and should need replacement in 2 to 6 months.

I measured my front rotors over the weekend and they are 0.1 mm above minimum.

I am thinking about changing both rotos and pads soon.

I do not track, thus looking for just good braking capability. Low noise and low dust are my priorities.

Please suggest good rotors + pads combo that works well for you in term of low noise and low dust.

Thanks!

After reading the reviews in tirerack.com, I am pretty much set on getting Akebono Euro Ceramic pads. Do let me know if you have better suggestions. Thanks!

Sigh...Akebono pads seems out of stock. I can't find any retailer that has them in stock.
I see this thread for M3 folks at https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1224360.
I am getting the Power Stop pads from Amazon.
