Brake pads POWER STOP or OEM BMW
I have an 09 G37x Coupe and we have the same brakes, 320/307 rotors. I just installed the POWERSTOP Z26 brake kit and it's very good. You'll need more brake part lube than they give you but other than that the kit is really nice and definitely worth it, carbon ceramic pads last way longer.
I have that kit on my 2013 A6 and have a set waiting to go on my 2011 S5. I would highly recommend, great quality, have used them on many different vehicles, best bang for buck.
I have these on my lifted jeep on 35s (the tow and haul model) and they the best stock size brakes you can get without having to get a big brake kit from mopar.
I just installed PowerStop z23 kit myself. The breaks are great plenty of stopping power but the initial bite of the pads are different. Also almost no brake dust.
Last one lasted me 70k miles roughly. Rotors and pads. Solid choice.
Put them on my Mercedes back in September. Absolutely no complaints. Plus way less brake dust.
I redid all four on my 2014 A4 allroad. There was. Virtually no brake dust and no squeak or squeal with excellent stopping power.
Ya I had them on my a3 and it was dramatic difference than oem. Only down side is slotted and drilled make noise when you brake hard with them.
I have had power stops before on my firebird formula and they were great, it seems for the imports they are not as good.
Hey there, maybe you can help me out with the embarrassingly loud brakes on my g80 m3 (does not have the $8k carbon brakes package).
I bought it new and since day 1, the brakes have squealed incredibly bad. Not bad like "this is performance brakes so you have to tolerate it because you bought a sports car," which is what BMW has told me 50 times now. But awful, ear piercing, screeching every single time I brake. I took the shop foreman on a ride who agreed it was the worst he's ever heard.
