Brake pads Brembo or EBC
EBC blue on stock rotors, and stock suspension for 2 seasons so far... The pads are done, but I think I'll be getting the EBC blue again
I use EBC red stuff Front and rear. Better than OE performance, with less brake dust.
I upgraded to ebh yellows from stock, they are affordable, huge braking improvement in pedal feel, if your in a cold climate id avoid ceramics.
I changed over to ebc yellows for a track day and still have them on 1.5 years later.. LOTS of brake dust but the stopping power is night and day.
I got the brembo pads from autozone. They squealed a little for about 100 miles but are quite now. The car has some crazy stopping power, it is the S model.
yellow stuff pads (crazy good)
EBC pads are highly overrated for the price. Red stuff are pretty squealy and dust more than stock. Initial bite is about the same.
Discs are the ones it came with from the factory, pads are Brembo (M Performance brakes on 340i)
EBC yellowstuff are THE problem. they aren't good on the road, let alone on a racetrack! Get Hawk HP+s and you won't have that problem at all.
Brembos are street pads, they are designed to be low noise and low dust. They’re not for any sort of aggressive driving.
