Brake pads ATE or Bosch

The problem is the OEM pads. I replaced my pads and only the pads with BOSCH pads, and it brakes fantastic now.

If you are looking for the best brake pads and rotors that will not pulsate, last a long time and work across a vast of vehicles, I suggest you look into Perfect Stop.

I've got AutoZone's gold ceramic pads on mine right now. They are made by Bosch, I know because they drop-shipped from the Bosch factory. Grippier than OEM, quiet for daily driving and decent for spirited driving.

Just bought a set of Bosch F & R brake pads w hardware for $66 (including tax) on Amazon. For my 2007 Infiniti M35. Fit perfect. Good quality.

I went ATE pads and rotors from FCP and couldn't be happier

I run ATE Ceramic pads with Zimmerman rotors on my MK7 and am very satisfied.

Fourth I would make sure you are using high quality pads and rotors. Use name brands like raybestos, centric, Bosch, etc. Lower quality brands will have more issues.

I put ATE on my 335is a year ago and am very happy with them. Almost no dust and good stopping power. When they were new, the initial bite was a bit weak, but that went away after break in.

Depending on the tier of pads Autozone does source from Bosch. The big benefit to Autozone is that you only pay once as they do a lifetime warranty and it covers wear. I have their most expensive pads on my car and have replaced them twice a year for 5 years now.

Bosch pads are fine. Trouble is when you buy from Amazon you don't know if you're getting Bosch or counterfeit Bosch and there's a real risk of counterfeits from Amazon.
