I got powerstop rotors drilled and slotted from Amazon front and rear for about $300 and some akebono brake pads with the sensors. Probably all in under $500. Did the work myself, pretty easy honestly.

Pros: easy to install

I prefer Akebono ceramic. I think their top tier line is called ProAct. Very nice pads. Quiet, low dust, and perform well.

Pros: quiet, low dust

Do not go for the CCBs they aren\u2019t any better on the road. Squeak like crazy when wet, and a pair of akebonos and you\u2019ll get minimal dust

Pros: minimal dust with akebonos

Cons: squeak like crazy when wet

Vehicle: BMW
