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).

Pros: long lasting, good feel
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 200000 km

OEM BMW Brake pads

I can't say much towards your brakes since I have a G30. However, I was quoted $1850 for my front M Sport brakes. I ended up doing it myself for $900 in parts only. It's not very complicated.

Pros: easy to do yourself
Cons: expensive quote
Vehicle: BMW

I got quoted well over a grand to do all 4 brake pads at the dealer. I went to a local garage and they did it for half

Pros: cheaper at local garage
Cons: expensive at dealer

My understanding is that the pads that bmw uses create a lot of brake dust because they are ‘soft’ to give a nice smooth pedal feel.

Pros: smooth pedal feel
Cons: lots of brake dust

BMW OEM pads have done that for decades as far as I can tell. Just get aftermarket pads and you'll get the same performance with less mess.

Pros: same performance, less mess
Cons: lots of dust
