Personally I like the EBC brake pads on mine because they are low dust and very grippy. Your wheels stay cleaner longer.
I've tried alot of pads including; stop tech sports (309), EBC blue NDX, dixel ztypes and most recently EBC RPX on my 1st and 2nd gen BRZ. Out of all these I would recommend the EBC RPX.
They have higher fade resistance than the rest.
Ankle flicking power all session
Safe cold bite (5°C)
Only slight squeal on street.
akebono ACT pads. Street pads, low dust.
I have EBC SR-11s, 3 track days and like 8k street miles of them. Very very embarrassingly noisy but they still got 80% life left at least. And they don\u2019t wear the rotor like crazy either.
I use Reds and they are pretty good and no sounds that I’m aware of coming out of them. They stop very well
akebono proact ceramics. very well priced off of rockauto. they're not super sporty or bite much but they have very little dust and a linear pedal feel. these are same ones i used on my 2021.
Look into EBC Redstuff pads and see if they offer it for your M3. Also consider either ceramic coating the wheel surface or paying to get it professionally coated. I switch most of my BMW’s to this brake pad and the dusting is significantly reduced while still maintaining a good bite and braking performance.
Akebono isn't bad, but I usually go with oem brake pads if available.
EBC yellowstuff are THE problem. they aren't good on the road, let alone on a racetrack! Get Hawk HP+s and you won't have that problem at all.
I used up a new set of EBC Blues in a single track day, 5 sessions of 20 mins each. They also caused a lot of heat spots on my front rotors.
