Aftermarket brake pads that give off less dust.

Mustbnic3 · 04-10-2016, 10:11 AM

So I was spoiled previously because I had carbon ceramics on my M3. ZERO brake dust was the best! I rather not spend 12k on buying ceramic brakes so I'm seeing if anyone has come across aftermarket pads that give off less dust then the factory ones.
Thank you

The ones I've been recommended, but haven't tried yet are Pagid Ceramic Brake pads. Reportedly has less squeaking issues.
only front pads are available

I have tried Pagid RS29 on M6 brakes retrofitted into F06 650. It has moderate brake dust, grip much better than stock oem pads. But a little noisy.
If you are interested, I had it for 2 weeks and sold the car.
Going to post it sometime next week in classified section.

noisy as in squeaky?

I need to find the work order from when the dealer changed mine out so I can share the part numbers. I had really bad squealing initially , once I pressure washed the rims/calipers it would go away for a day or so.

Dealer said they would swap out the pads ONE time (good will) for what ever pad they put in. SA said its was way more expensive of a part and had to get the OK from someone at BMWUSA so that they could do it. All I can say is its night and day different now, way less dust and ZERO squeal. While I do not track the car or use the breaks to their full potential I can not sense a difference in performance .

What they say about goodwill is just BS. I have had them my brakes replaced 3 times (I'm on the 4th set) and those include pads and rotors.
Sometimes the reason of noise is not brake pad... it's the cracked rotors and there is a service bulletin that I posted long time ago here:

Back from the dead. I'm the guy that bought the pads off of you. These things are terribly squeaky. Have to find another option. It's embarrasing

Have you got it bedded properly?
If you didn't bed it properly, it will squeak terribly.

Yes however the front pads were grooved a little upon arrival which I was a little disappointed
