Ferodo DS2500 are a great compromise pad. They’re a bit more on the race side of things but I never had issues with them being sketchy. Just get a bit of heat into them early to make sure they’re there.
I'm going to tell you ferodo DS 1.11. Street driven on them a ton very easy on rotors. Endurance pad, much better than other things I see mentioned a lot like it blows my mind when people think RSL29s are better. I don't have an M3 but I have a 330ci which has the same brakes, and I've had lots of other cars from Corvettes to Mustangs and camaros. Have run that compound a ton.
My Polestar 2 has 3 levels of OPD which is awesome. My brakes are still fairly new and I have 34800 miles on it as of today. I very rarely use the friction brakes unless I take it to the track and thats when the Brembos brakes all around really work.
I think they work just fine. They squealed a bit even after running them in, it stopped however after the first track day where i properly cooked the brakes.
If you want a bit more performance without loosing cold braking, use ferodo ds performance, they're amazing price-quality wise.
Brembos I put on have been amazing so far
I've got the rs5 with ceramic front brakes, I'm looking to get the pads replaced, back ones are 100 for a genuine set, but front ones are nearly 1000 for a genuine set?! I inspect my front pads and see they are made by brembo and have audi branding on it. A little bit a research and I find OE equivalent pads from brembo for only 240. They felt the exact same to me on the track.
Brembo sind meiner Meinung nach nicht mehr das, was es mal war. In meinem Mazda quietschen die schon ordentlich, wobei die OEM das auch tun.
Recently completed my HPDE and by the end of the day my stock pads were completely gone. Got my front rotors and all my pads replaced soon after that. I went for the Ferodo DS2500 pads. While bedding my pads, I noticed the brake feeling/bite is quite nice when braking at around 50-60% pressure, but once I tried emulating track style braking (i.e hitting brake pedal very hard) I noticed that my brake pedal was vibrating/rattling and also felt some sort of scraping was going on. This would happen even when hitting brakes hard from low speeds of ~30 mph. It's felt entirely on the front brakes. ABS did not engage, so I don't think the vibrations are from that. The obvious visible difference I see is the use of high temp brake lube from the shop.
Nie wieder Brembo! Bei mir haben sich die Beläge aufgelöst und die Scheiben waren auch nach kurzer Zeit komplett hin. Ich bin ca. 15-20.000 km gefahren und musste dann alles wieder komplett wechseln. Ich war wirklich unfassbar enttäuscht weil ich dachte mit Brembo macht man alles richtig.
