Brake pads OEM BMW or OEM Mercedes

From brakes have been solid

On a 428 both lower control forward arms including labor I believe $320 to $350

Brake pads brake, w e a r sensor and I believe both speed sensors under $400 no rotors were replaced.

Parts cost about 500$ for front and rear brakes if do yourself.

It has new brakes, oil pan gasket, VCG, new radiator, hoses, fan, fan clutch, water pump and a few other things I’m forgetting.

I always bought BMW genuine brake pads and rotors, and never had an issue. They work great.

Did brake rotors and pads myself parts about 400-500$. Brakes never wore out either they just warped.

OEM BMW Performance. Can’t recommend the brake pads though, dusty as hell. I had Hawk HPS5.0 pads before, those performed better than the OE pads with the added bonus of being very low dust.

As someone else mentioned, the rear brakes are tiny and even running Pagid RS29 race pads, the rears were 3mm more worn than the front after just one track day.

Welcome - get used to it, unfortunately!

It’s almost as if spirited driving causes wear.
