Brake discs Bosch or OEM BMW
My CRV and Odyssey are on Bosch rotors and pads from rockauto. They’re great thus far. Only complaint is that I ended up using pad clips from Honda because the Bosch ones didn’t fit as good on the CRV but were excellent on the Oddy.
I just bought Bosch rotors and akebono pads on Amazon with a bottle of brake fluid. Works fine.
I've installed drilled and slotted rotors on my pickup, BMW X5, and just ordered a set for my BMW Z3. I live in the mountains, drive spirited, and definitely have improved braking performance with them. Make sure you bed the pads in correctly.
i bought used 2011 528i RWD N52 engine with 120k km 5 years ago.
currently sitting at 179k km.

After 160k miles, finally changed the brake rotors. Got the Bosch Quietcast rotors and paired it with the Bosch Quietcast brake pads. Was a pretty simple project, and would highly recommend! Haven’t heard a squeak or anything. Definitely “quiet.”
I recently went with Bosch branded discs and pads for an E46 330i M Sport. So far, so good.
Saves energy when braking. Its really satisfying to see the range go up when slowly braking downhill. This also saves your brake discs from wearing out fast, (just remember to use the brakes some times so they dont rust).
Bosch quiet cast rotors and akebono pads. Pros not alot of dust so wheels are pretty clean. Cons none so far.
Ever notice how BMW does not use cross drilled rotors. I think Porshe is also open about the fact they only use them for the looks. HMMMM
I have seen the Blaster coils burn Bosch rotors down to a stump. I don't know if something might have been wrong with the system--timing, wrong plug, etc. But it happened.
