I'm due for a brake change soon and wanted input from anyone who has installed these on an E60. I've had great mileage and braking from the OEM pads/rotors, typically 65K fronts/80K rears, but now looking for something comparable without the high level of brake dust. Akebono seems to be a favorite and potentially Cool Carbon, but these look promising as well. Thanks,
Kevin

I recently switched from OEM rotors and pads to Stop Tech slotted rotors and Brembo front pads and Akebono rear pads. Tire Rack was out of stock of the front Akebono pads when I tried to order them, so I went with Brembo. I am happy without the overall performance. However, the initial bite is not as good as OEM. The brake dust is hardly non existent.
