I might get scolded by the purest, but I went with these R1 Concepts on my 2019 X5.\n\nI too was shocked when the dealer quoted over 2k for brakes, so I started looking at options. I\u2019ve had them for about two years, they have performed excellent and they look amazing.

Pros: performed excellent, look amazing
Vehicle: BMW X5

I just checked my maintenance notes and for my car I bought brake pads for $18.98 for the front set. They were Wagner OEX closeout and they are still going fine at 30,000 miles.

Pros: still going fine
Mileage: 48280 km

I've had no problem with Wagner, Bosch, Hella/Pagid, and Brembo; Raybestos, Bendix, Beck/Arnley, Centric, etc are all solid options for a daily driver too.

Pros: solid options

Surprisingly, R1 Concepts Track Pads. They have been really great on the track (3800lb/310hp? car).

I left them on my daily since I am too lazy to change out the pads and they have been on for about 6 months and a few track days. They are great for the street and track but dusty as hell. They only make noise when it’s cold outside other wise they are fine.

Pros: great for street and track
Cons: dusty as hell, noise when cold

I would suggest going to [www.buybrakes.com](http://www.buybrakes.com) and get the R1 Concepts pads for the front and rear. The ones Rockauto has growl a little bit.

Pros: good quality
Cons: growl a little bit
Vehicle: Hyundai Genesis

Oem is expensive and are dealer items, and quality aftermarket brakes are readily available. Look for raybestos or Wagner brands for domestic vehicles, ebc for European vehicles. And there is no need for oem wear parts

Pros: quality aftermarket available
Cons: oem is expensive
