I switched to duralast rotors and power stop pads. I wanna say z26. But overall im happy. I just drive, no track. Car still stops good and less brake dust and cost less then OE.
I used the powerstop z26 with mine. Work great, less expensive than original equipment.
You have a Performance Pack car. The wheels are a dead giveaway. Those Brembos are stock. I ended up going with Power Stop Z26's on mine.
Powerstop Z26 pads are pretty good for the price. G-Loc GS-1s are nice for street use. Both are low dust.
I’ve gone with ceramic pads on my cars. Minimal brake dust, low brake fade, quiet.
I just installed powerstop ceramic pads and blank rotors. Similar stopping power to oem but way less brake dust.
I used a decent set of coated Raybestos rotors and a set of the most expensive PowerStop pads front and rear on my last brake job on my LS 430 — came from RockAuto. The rotors haven’t warped, the pads are wearing nicely and are no where near as filthy as the Brembo’s I had been using and I can’t tell the difference between this setup and the Lexus parts. No squeaks either!
Go to an independent BMW shop. PowerStop Z23 pads are a super budget friendly option. I've run them on all 3 of my street MINIs. Very quiet and low dusting but good performance.
I know it's late for my response, here is my reviews on Powerstop brakes they are okay they do the trick had them on my G37 for three years then I replaced them with Stillen cause they offered slotted brakes.
If that quote is just for pads, it's not a ripoff. it's criminal!!! Do yourself a favor and buy powerstop, install them yourself, and save a fortune. Scat brakes are ridiculously easy to work on.
