I’ve ran the Bendix GCT pads in my daily for years.

Minimal dust and good lifespan, and they work as they should.

I’d prefer them over the likes of Bosch and Protex.

Pros: good lifespan, minimal dust

I’ve run the Akebonos on my M235i for years with no issues. They seem to dust less than the factory ones, which is a bonus to me.

Pros: dust less than factory

I use Akebono pads and coated Raybestos rotors. I changed my brakes around the time I got my 07 which was a year ago. I highly doubt you drive like you're street racing or drifting. My brakes still have a hell of a lot of life left in them.

Pros: a hell of life

Vehicle: Toyota Prius
