vs
Brake pads ENDLESS or JURID
My favorite is still the endless mx72/mx72plus, not the most aggressive pad out there but they warm up extremely quick and for street cars the added bonus of surprisingly small amount of brake dust
Pros: quick warm-up, low dust
Cons: not aggressive
I’ve been told by some very experienced S2000 drivers that this is the best braking setup outside of a BBK. It’s streetable as well, if you don’t mind a bit squeaking. Make sure to burnish/bed the pads in beforehand for better performance.
Pros: best braking setup, streetable
Cons: a bit squeaking

Buy pads and the sensor from FCP Euro. Use their lifetime replacement warranty for the next set. Went to the dealer in July for an alignment and they recommended pads for a similar price. I bought pads rotors and sensors for front and back, total was $1000 for BMW parts. You could save with Jurid which is listed as OE and OEM. My pads are at 4mm all around so I'm actually waiting for the sensor to trip before doing the job.
Pros: lifetime warranty, good price

I’ve tried a lot of pads on my ‘18 tS, and by far the best have been Endless SSY. They’re great on the track, grip great, but are also silent and almost dust-free.
Pros: grip great, silent
Cons: difficult to find, pricey
The Jurid pads did work. They were 13.8mm that seems to be the key.
Pros: pads worked correctly

I replaced the pads on with Endless MX-72. Similar progressive bite to OEM, just more and WAY more thermal capacity. They feel like the ultimate brake pad. Using OEM rotors, I've had zero \"warping\" since switching over. This leads me to think that the rotors aren't actually warping but the nature of the OEM pads leads to pad deposits on the rotors. I get close to 60,000 Miles out of a set and have never considered another pad after discovering them.
Pros: ultimate brake pad, zero warping
Cons: pad deposits on rotors

Good braking, squeak free, low dust. The OE pads are great. They have good initial bite, no noise, high quality but they are semi-metallic so they make a bunch of dust. There are ceramic pad options that are low dust but they can be squeaky and won’t perform that great until they are warmed up. And of course you can get bargain bin organic pads which will have low dust but won’t perform nearly as well as stock. It’s a trade off no matter what. I went with the OE Jurid pads. I’d rather clean my wheels than lose braking performance or deal with noise. Also keep in mind that the rotors matter with noise and dust too.
Pros: good initial bite, high quality
Cons: lots of dust, semi-metallic
I just put on some Endless MX72s. But they are for performance street and occasional track use. And they are not cheaper or probably less noise. But I do expect a great deal better wear with them than stock.
Pros: better wear than stock
Cons: not cheap, noisy
Jurid = stock BMW E36M3 pads, pretty good on the street, not to good on the track. DOn't know if there are different types
Pros: good on the street
Cons: not good on the track

Volkswagen uses Jurid and Pagid Black compound brakepads as OEM on our Passats. The problem is that these pads take a very long time to correctly bed into the brake rotors. If these pads aren't bed correctly, over time they will wear unevenly on the rotor which causes vibration. That vibration is what causes your brakes to squeal!!
Cons: uneven wear, causes vibration
