wihaM5 · 12-24-2021, 02:02 AM

What's the best pads I can run on my F10 550i. Price is not an issue I just want a performance quality pads with no noise???
I previously had performance pads on my last E60-550i and they were noisy unless under heavy load….
Has anyone ran NRS Brakes Galvanized Brake Pads??

I personally use Akebono ceramic pads on my 535i, no complaints with regards to performance plus minimal dust on my wheels. Not sure how they are for high performance use since I don't track my car, but for everyday driving they are more than adequate.

+1 for the Akebono, my indy's go to pad and on my cars for over a decade.

Thanks I'll check them out I was looking and considering these NRS galvanized brake pads. Have you heard of them or know anyone who has ran these before

Unless you really value no dust, OEM pads will give you the best feel with no noise.

Akebono all around on our 535i m-sport. Love them.
