Brake pads?

I got some new tires for the wife's 07 X3 and saw that the pads are getting a bit low. What pads do u think is the best especially to cut down in the brake dust and of course
Good stopping power. Thanks guys.

I would say go with the OEM pads.

putting these on soon.

Sent from my SGH-I897 using Bimmer App

I put Hawke HPS on my 06 X3 a year ago.Still feel great after 10,000 mi.& return trip to Florida and almost zero dust.
Purchased online from Bimmerworld (Great Prices & service)

I just installed the OEM's, honestly they are amazing and lifespan will be longest. Very high quality and well made. You'll be satisfied.

I like the OEM pads, they perform great but I'm looking to cut the brake dust down. Thanks for your help guys I will keep investigating.

Thanks for feedback I will keep looking.

Really?? I installed Hawk HPS in the front with new zimmerman rotors 5 weeks ago, and they sqeal like a pig and brake dust is absolutely awfull, not satisfied at all. I should of stick with OEM pads. I'd rather wash my wheels more often and have a top quality pads like the OEM.....

Thats strange as I did all four wheels on the original rotors and I am totally satisfied.
They are as good or better than the OEM and no dust

And no sqealing at all ??

I heard these are great no dust pads too: http://www.brakewarehouse.com/rotex_brake_pads.asp

But they're pricey - about $150 for front and rear.

I bought the Akebono Euro's from Rock Auto and paid $118.41 shipped.

Quiet as a Church Mouse.

Akebono's are definitely low dust - but don't stop as well.

Sounds like you may have gotten Hawk HP+ instead of HPS.
