OEM BMW Brake pads

Best things I did for my g80 was 1) Mishimoto skid plate to protect my oil cooler 2)Ceramic brake pads because the red dust that will engulf the lower half of your car after a 1/2 mile drive is insane.

Pros: less dust
Cons: red dust
Vehicle: BMW

OEM BMW Brake pads

I've been driving it with a Stage 2 tune for 4 years and put another 50,000km on it and I've had 0 repairs. Maintenance is more expensive of course, bigger tires, bigger brakes, more oil, it all adds up but the B58 is super reliable.

Pros: B58 super reliable
Cons: expensive maintenance
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 50000 km

Oh, I did have rust pop on one of the original brake pads so I had to replace that this spring - very little pad wear though!

Pros: very little wear
Cons: rust pop

To be fair Tesla brakes are not great. Combined with regen? Sure it’s adequate, but drive a German vehicle and see what brakes are about.

Pros: adequate with regen
Cons: brakes are not great
