Brake pads TRW or Project Mu
Project MU HC+ pads. These have a higher operating temp range than Ferodo DS2500 and are perfectly streetable too. I get very minor squeal when coming to a stop if it's been a while since they were used hard. they also have great braking feel IMO, nice and sharp, and perfectly controllable. I use them on a Renault Megane RS 280 Cup, I've used them on track with semi-slicks (AD09s) and they held up great in 15 min sessions. Some minor vibration after the day but that fades away with use (or another hard besdding session). Do not recommend Ferodo DS2500 especially with semi slicks. Might be ok for your first day if you're slow, but you'll almost certainly cook them on your second and get deposits on your rotors. Great performance pads or the street though. On my car I only use them on the front, rears are stock.
I have Akebono on my 330 and TRW Ultra TXC1171 on my 328, I have to say the TRWs have excellent bite and the brake dust is minimal as well.
I did Project MU B force pads. DBA 4000 rotors, Stop tech stainless steel brake lines, Motul 660 brake fluid, radium brake booster brace(a must). Make sure to set those pads in the correct sequence and they gonna rip your face off bud! I had 6 piston brembos also, what a difference!
I do not recommend these for the street, however the track performance is off the charts.
They’re track/race pads, but I rarely track my car. It’s not a daily, just a fun weekend car, but I find the pad performance to be amazing and they’re not noisy like everyone says they would be.
I would recommend getting TRW Ceramics if you're going to change them. Affordable, good stopping power, low dust, quiet
Just did the rear brakes on my 2015 335i
Just did the front pads and rotors on my wife’s 2020. Went with Zimmerman rotors and TRW pads and it brakes like a dream, was recommended them from a friend's euro and exotic shop.
I found Project Mu Club Racers to be decently streetable for a track pad. They do squeal a bit at less than 25 but are tolerable as long as they’re bedded in and you’re giving a decent amount of threshold pressure.
They look about par for an economy, aftermarket brake pad. I use TRW on my beaters pretty often. Mine often don't come wrapped in anything other than a rubber band. They aren't OEM quality, but for 20 bucks a pair...I'll deal with it and have never had an issue.
