I use Akebonos. Good stopping power without too much bite.
I recently bought brembo pads and rotors for my 330 e46 , got a great deal on them
Akebono Euro pads
I've been using Brembo pads for more than 300km after bedding. The package is super tidy. It came with an installation manual. The pad looks beautifully made. The materials feel nice. The Brembo is way more smoother than the OEM (Textar). Textar is more harsh, especially in traffic. I swapped the pads with Brembo and the problem of stopping smoothly went away instantly. It creates way less dust than Textar.
I own a BM Mazda 3 and I changed them one year and half ago and they work as expected (at the dealership, it was expensive).
2032 fit fine in mine as well. I noticed the remote lock button was not working from more than a few car lengths when cold and decided it was time before I ran into other issues.
That would be Eicher disks and Brembo pads.
I just did brakes on my 2017 330. I got Brembo rotors, and Akebono pads. They're excellent brakes, akebono pads are highly recommended, and Brmebo holds its own.
The only pad I've found that has both low dust and *okay* bite is Akebono Euro ceramic. They still bite less aggressively than most stock semi-metallic pads, and *way* less bite than any sort of track pad. But they're very easy on rotors, dust little, and can actually stand up to 15-20 min track sessions without falling apart.
switching to a new set of stockers showed me exactly how different the dimensions are. they look the same, but the fit is no where near the correct size for these carriers. the brembo pads bounced around like crazy. its alright i was able to return them but i was hoping to get rid of dust. maybe ill try to get a replacement set and see if they fit any better
