Brake pads OEM BMW or Duralast
I put some on our family's extra car, they actually stop the car way better than I thought.
Pros: stops car well
Ive put them on countless cars that just see road use(Rears on my Civic currently are Duralast). I like buying from autozone bc you can order from site to store and use retailmenot coupons to save a bunch of money.
Pros: good for road use
They are good pads for daily use. I would avoid the standard Duralast and get the Duralast Golds. They are not performance brakes so don't except them to be good if you taking the car to the track often. Plus the lifetime warranty is a pretty big plus. Free pair when you need to replace them.
Pros: good for daily use, lifetime warranty
Cons: not for track use
Fine for daily driving. Have the mid-range ones on our Forester and it stops, doesn't squeal, and they've been lasting.
Pros: lasts long, quiet, good stopping
Great cars. They like to eat brakes in regular intervals. With 70k make sure there is no front end shimmy that is the result in worn control arm bushings/warped brake rotors.
Cons: eats brakes regularly
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 70000 km
Brakes are excellent
Pros: brakes are excellent
Vehicle:
BMW
The OEM brake pads were painfully inadequate for anything more than street driving. Interestingly enough, the rest of the brake components were designed very good and they have a lot of capacity. A simple pad upgrade and brake fluid flush proved sufficient for more serious track days.
Pros: simple pad upgrade sufficient
Cons: pads painfully inadequate
Vehicle:
BMW
I vastly prefer my R to the BMW. I think the R drives better, its more tossable, i feel like the steering is better weighted and the brakes are much better.
Pros: brakes are much better
