Brake pads Bosch or DIXCEL

Dixcel M-Type are the least dusty street pad I've ever used. A little pricey and straight from Japan, but they aren't kidding when they advertise "ultra low dust". Have about 1500 miles on them so far and they're great on the street and for the occasional togue/mountain days.

Dump the OEM pads. I went Dixcel in my M3 and the thing stops better and there’s so much less dust. Traded off is squeal at higher brake temps.

So far I've been happy with Bosch brake pads.

Bosch Quietcast pads. They have good stopping power, are quiet (so far) and have low dust, so they are great for my daily driver.

I used rockauto and got.

BOSCH BC433 ceramic Brake Pads on my front brakes.

They have been real good.

I also have those Bosch pads on my Tundra and they are really good, quiet, low dust, excellent overall.

I think the Bosch pads work fine.

Last year a shop replaced the rear brake pads and disks but since then handbrake never was like before. They kept telling me it will get better which I believed at the time but it never did. Last month I've passed inspection and they told me that the rear left handbrake was almost out of spec and I'd need to check it out although it passed.

So a month later I've bought a Bosch kit, sliders, pads, grease, toolkit etc and replaced the 1 year old ferodo pads. Now handbrake is like it should be and I'm happy with it but take a look at the old pads...

Both inner side alignment pins (caliper side) are bent.

Bosch szettet vettem. Baj nincs vele, 60k km de a 0.tól kezdve nyikorog, mint a picsa.

I had this problem after working on a friend's Infiniti FX35 and also using Bosch ceramic brake pads.

The problem for me was that Bosch pads have a different inside and outside pad for the rears for that vehicle. I've used Bosch pads before and never encountered this.

The pads were not marked and nothing on the box indicated there were different sides so I didn't notice. But they have protruding nubs on the backing that cause the caliper to not sit properly and increase their thickness, causing constant drag on the rotors.
