Akebono was the oem brand last I checked, not sure if still the case. I'm using them, and they stop just like oem, no noise or issues.
switched to Akebono brake pads and brake dust was gone on my f30.
yellow stuff pads (crazy good)
They're quiet, low dust, and take away a little of the overly aggressive initial bite (i hate it, you might not).
EBC brakes are great. They have rotors and pads. The Ultimax pads are the best street pads with low dust.
On my particular vehicle, the front pads and rear pads have a friction code of GG. I am currently running the Akebobo ASP performance brake pads and have been completely satisfied and impressed with the performance.

I am currently running the Akebobo ASP performance brake pads and have been completely satisfied and impressed with the performance. Akebono has apparently discontinued their performance ASP line and replace them with “an equivalent“. their standard line ACT pads are allegedly exactly the same, with reduced copper content. Additionally, the front pads still have a GG rating, but the rear pads are a lower FF rating.
I've been using my SR11s for nearly a year now for few trackdays and some street events. I'm getting tired of SR11s downhill usage more and more since it won't hold and lose brakes so I have to be really careful. Also it seems a bit inconsistent for daily usage/semi-fast touge style drives. Some days it's the best thing ever but somedays it feels like the brake pad is dead.
EBC's suck so it's nice they provide a chart with better pad options :)
