Brake pads Akebono or JURID
Swap out for ceramic pads (I've had good success with Akebono)
I like Akebono Ceramic pads with Zimmerman rotors on my E92, some feel that you lose a little bite but I like them and they pretty much eliminate brake dust.
Akebono are very good brake pads.
For a daily driven car, Akebono Proact are widely praised.
The AST pads are amazing and have incredible bite, especially when warmed up. The pedal pressure is very linear and predictable.
New Jurid front brake pads and a new front brake pad wear sensor April 2025.
Akebono all the way..made in USA too
Akebono was the oem brand last I checked, not sure if still the case. I'm using them, and they stop just like oem, no noise or issues.
put Akebono pads on my 335is that I use for weekend/track car. Many have recommended them for their low brake dust. However, they’re missing that initial bite and since my car is pushing some power, it feels slippery when driving in the street if they haven’t been warmed up.
I am having the same issue with my car front brakes (Akebono ceramic). They squeak when braking at very low speed to full stop. What was the resolution?
