Hella Pagid Brake pads

I've been researching brake pads recently since I was looking for something to replace my awful Akebono pads up front. What I've learned is that Textar and Pagid are OEM pads and will have the "BMW brake feel". Textars are usually on the rears and Pagid on the fronts. Bosch is supposedly not quite as good as the other two. I bought the Pagid pads and man, what an improvement from the Akebono. I can stop again without having to jam on the brakes.

Pros: Improved braking, better feel
Cons: Akebono pads awful

OEM BMW Brake pads

I can't say much towards your brakes since I have a G30. However, I was quoted $1850 for my front M Sport brakes. I ended up doing it myself for $900 in parts only. It's not very complicated.

Pros: easy to do yourself
Cons: expensive quote
Vehicle: BMW

OEM BMW Brake pads

I got quoted well over a grand to do all 4 brake pads at the dealer. I went to a local garage and they did it for half

Pros: cheaper at local garage
Cons: expensive at dealer

OEM BMW Brake pads

Just for front brakes/rotors at my dealership they wanted $1,100. I found a shop that is highly rated and they got it done, plus an oil change, for $550. So half the dealership and an oil change to boot. I\u2019ll never go to the dealership again unless it\u2019s an electronics issue.

Pros: cheaper at local shop
Cons: expensive at dealership

OEM BMW Brake pads

My dealer charges about $1100 for rear brakes and rotors, and about $1200 for front brakes and rotors, so $2300ish total. I got all pads and rotors done at a local shop for about $1100, and transmission fluid (+ pan and filter) done for $750 at the same shop.

Pros: cheaper at local shop
Cons: expensive at dealer

Carbotech Brake pads

I ran into some brake issues. The pedal started getting squishy even in wet conditions. It never got dangerously deep, but it was still unpredictable. In the last session, the track dried up and I was able to push. I experienced somewhat serious fade. I had to absolutely stand on the brake pedal to get the car stopped. After pulling into the paddock and circling around to let the car cooldown, I still smelled brakes for the next 20+ minutes. The pedal firmed up on the way home.

Pros: pedal firmed up
Cons: squishy pedal, brake fade
