Brake pads OEM BMW or JURID

On my previous EV, a BMW i3, the brake pads were the same as the Mini Cooper (except for the 2014, which used a shaved-down pad for some reason).

I just bought pads, rotors and sensors. Went with BMW branded, lifetime replacement warranty makes it a no brainier.

Buy pads and the sensor from FCP Euro. Use their lifetime replacement warranty for the next set. Went to the dealer in July for an alignment and they recommended pads for a similar price. I bought pads rotors and sensors for front and back, total was $1000 for BMW parts. You could save with Jurid which is listed as OE and OEM. My pads are at 4mm all around so I'm actually waiting for the sensor to trip before doing the job.

Used them twice. Both times had excellent speedy service for a good price. Both times were brakes on my 3 series (front discs and pads, then rears). Saved a significant chunk of cash.

Genuine BMW pads and discs only. Driven 200k miles in my beamers. Even the e46 gets genuine BMW factory brakes. My 640i got new genuine discs and pads about a year or 2 ago. (£550 in parts, £80 labour).

The pads on my 2019 Alltrack are wearing nicely as there is plenty of life left at 52,500 miles.

Front brake pads are worn. I have a new set of Jurid OEM pads that will come with the car.

It’s almost as if spirited driving causes wear.

Meanwhile, my basic 330i standard rear brakes were apparently almost 500 bucks to replace…holy cow I don’t think I actually make bmw money anymore hahaha
