Brake pads Bendix or OEM BMW
Some DBA T2 slotted rotors and Bendix heavy duty or any other quality brand pad will be good.
Pros: good quality
Repco, whatever model serial for rotors and Bendix pads, then find someone to do it for you.
The pads on my 2019 Alltrack are wearing nicely as there is plenty of life left at 52,500 miles.
Pros: plenty of life left

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
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
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
$930 at a local BMW expert shop. That's front and rear, pads and rotors.
Pros: reasonable price
Vehicle:
BMW
My understanding is that the pads that bmw uses create a lot of brake dust because they are ‘soft’ to give a nice smooth pedal feel.
Pros: smooth pedal feel
Cons: lots of brake dust
Meanwhile, my basic 330i standard rear brakes were apparently almost 500 bucks to replace…holy cow I don’t think I actually make bmw money anymore hahaha
Cons: expensive brakes
Vehicle:
BMW
Same here. I basically drive a few times per week and clean the wheels at least twice!
Cons: lots of brake dust
