Brake pads Brembo or OEM BMW
Most you can do is Brembo X-tra pads or equivalent.
Came across a set of bmw brembo brakes at an auto wrecker. Bought for $50, sold for $950.
Just did my C300 rear rotors and pads. And front pads. All Bremro. In my case (cdn) the best price was Amazon. Pretty straight forward.
I have put 10k miles on it since then. The car has given me no issues whatsoever other than changing the brake pads and sensors.
Brembo Z04s ofc
SR pads from Brembo. Commute on workday and track-day on weekend on the same set of pads is very convenient for my wallet.
And even the normal things they need are a little pricier than on normal cars; you might need ($300) brake pads and ($1,000) brake rotors in 50,000 or 60,000 miles instead of just ($250) brake pads.
Configuring new car I would definitelly go for ccbs. The braking power is massive. But if driving in cold weather, snow or cold rain and not touching the brake for couple of minutes on highway and the first braking after that is basically no braking.
If used incorrectly on the track you can fuck them up. Dont ask how I learned that. Swapping them to steelies now. Car is at 130k kms. The weight of ccbs is good but they starting peeling probably due to overheating them with too much worn brake pads.
Brembo from ECP or Autodoc are cheap rubbish.
those bremboo that come from Asia are no good at performance braking
