Reviews of Hella Pagid parts For Business

I ended up doing Pagid rotors on my 540i with Dynamic Friction DFC5000 Euro pads. I’ve put some hard stops through them from high speeds and am very happy with their lack of noise and dust.

I'm running the cheapest coated rotors from rockauto and Pagid "OE" pads and I'm happy with it.

I use Pagid RSL29s on my M3, I don't bother switching pads after events. They work great on the street but I'm in Texas so it rarely gets below 45 degrees here. They squeal but the dust isn't too bad. I don't daily it but I wouldn't have an issue if I did. The squeal is annoying but really not too bothersome to me even though I drive 95% of the time with my windows down.

I've been researching brake pads recently since I was looking for something to replace my awful Akebono pads up front. What I've learned is that Textar and Pagid are OEM pads and will have the "BMW brake feel". Textars are usually on the rears and Pagid on the fronts. Bosch is supposedly not quite as good as the other two. I bought the Pagid pads and man, what an improvement from the Akebono. I can stop again without having to jam on the brakes.

I run pagid rsl29 (yellow) and i have been a big fan -- but it seems like you either love them or hate them, no in between.I still have over 75% brake pad left after 11 days on track-- with that said, factory brake cooling is pretty good on my car's front brakes (M2 Competition). I think most folks whom have issues have inadequate cooling which leads to very high temps, which the rsl29 do not like

Pagid have done me surprisingly well on track days.

With pagid discs and pads i have never had this issue.

I put in Hella pagid. They are fantastic

I have Pagid RSL29 pads and ATE 200 fluid on Hankook RS4s -- I don't worry too much about brake fade unless it's peak Texas summer heat, in which case I'm managing engine and tire temperature with cool down laps anyway.

Honestly, avoid brembo. I think I have pagid on my golf GTi currently as they needed doing and I couldn't get anything else. I drive that hard and not really had any real issues unless really pushing it.
