Hi guys, I recently changed my front brake pads on my E36 325i to some Meyle ones. They were only 20 pounds and I do not like them. They do not have the same bite as the ones that were previously on the car which I think was Valeo.. Schmiedmann - Brakepads front However when I look on different webshops I can pick Brembo TRW Ferodo for like 35 pounds, are those any better because the ones driftworks sell are more like 200pounds and that is a bit to much for me!!
Those Meyle ones are basicly BMW genuine ones, nobody makes the original old design anymore its outdated and probably contains asbestos.
Are carbotech pads available for your car? I use carbo's on my mr2 turbo and the stopping power is immense. HTH
Nope Yes, and there is a bit of a lip on it... Also I heard some good stuff about kevlar brake pads but so far the only ones I have found were EBC greenstuff and those are pretty expensive...
