i run dedicated track pads, HAWK HP+ . they are loud and filthy but perform phenomenally well for my skill level.
If you want upgraded pads. Try HAWK 5.0 pads. You can't go wrong with a better initial bit, better response and shorter stopping distance.
I have EBC SR-11s, 3 track days and like 8k street miles of them. Very very embarrassingly noisy but they still got 80% life left at least. And they don\u2019t wear the rotor like crazy either.
I use Reds and they are pretty good and no sounds that I’m aware of coming out of them. They stop very well
Look into EBC Redstuff pads and see if they offer it for your M3. Also consider either ceramic coating the wheel surface or paying to get it professionally coated. I switch most of my BMW’s to this brake pad and the dusting is significantly reduced while still maintaining a good bite and braking performance.
I ran Hawk HPS5.0 on my WRX for a while (with STI Brembos) and aftermarket rotors. They worked pretty well for dual purpose.
I haven't had any issue with yellow stuff on my 350Z doing hot track days in Miami. But the brakes don't last as long as they should. So I'm trying blue next time and I might go to the full track pads whenever that isn't enough.
Raybestos rotors and ebc redstuff pads, a bit aggressive but you get used to em
Installed EBC SG two piece racing rotors and EBC RP1 pads on my M2 about three weeks ago. My rotors currently look like this (photos attached) after a recent track day - brakes felt like they were grinding while on track.
Many years ago, I converted my 88 Cabriolet to Corrado G60 front brakes. The pads were junk. They ruined [caused the front rotors to warp] a couple sets of rotors before I pitched the pads.
