Brake pads JURID or DIXCEL

The Jurid pads did work. They were 13.8mm that seems to be the key.

Stock calipers with Dixcel SD slotted rotors and Dixcel ES pads.

Good braking, squeak free, low dust. The OE pads are great. They have good initial bite, no noise, high quality but they are semi-metallic so they make a bunch of dust. There are ceramic pad options that are low dust but they can be squeaky and won’t perform that great until they are warmed up. And of course you can get bargain bin organic pads which will have low dust but won’t perform nearly as well as stock. It’s a trade off no matter what. I went with the OE Jurid pads. I’d rather clean my wheels than lose braking performance or deal with noise. Also keep in mind that the rotors matter with noise and dust too.

Dixcel ES pads are a “fast street” pad with low noise and dust that out perform oem pads and can be used for light track application also with effective heat range of 0-600 degrees Celsius. I think they’re the best “bang for buck” pad you can get.

I'm running the JURID pads, too, and I'm at a little over 13k miles. No issues whatsoever...

I can tell the pads are fairly recent and are Jurid brand so I know they've been replaced recently.

You will need good 9.4" vented rotors & good pads like Ferodo, Pagid or Jurid.

When I picked her up, I was told my front and rear brake pads are all down 1mm already. At this rate I’ll likely need to replace them around 15k. I thought this made sense for the front pads since they’re the JURID high performance ones, but the rears being worn that much seemed strange. I don’t drive fast/brake hard/etc, never track, or do anything otherwise that should wear my brakes prematurely.

Jurid = stock BMW E36M3 pads, pretty good on the street, not to good on the track. DOn't know if there are different types

Volkswagen uses Jurid and Pagid Black compound brakepads as OEM on our Passats. The problem is that these pads take a very long time to correctly bed into the brake rotors. If these pads aren't bed correctly, over time they will wear unevenly on the rotor which causes vibration. That vibration is what causes your brakes to squeal!!
