Cheap ones used in a lot of shop lately for both rotors and pads are Bosch, and they hold up pretty well. I put a full set on my Suburban a couple years ago and have no complaints.

Pros: hold up pretty well

Get raybestos, powerstop, Bosch or akebono brakes. Akebono pads and Bosch Quietcast rotors are the best around

Pros: best around

Why after changing pads, greasing pins, new rotors, my brakes are still squeaking going through town and down the highway? The right side was noticeably more worn when I started the job, and that’s the one that’s squeaking. I put the new chrome inserts in the bracket too. OEM ac Delco pads and new Bosch quiet cast rotors. Used c clamp to push pistons back in. 2016 Yukon Denali

Cons: brakes still squeaking

For example on my 4 series if you took it to a dealership to have the front disks and pads done you are looking at over £900.

Cons: dealerships get very expensive
