Brake pads Raybestos or OEM BMW

OEM BMW Brake pads

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

Raybestos Brake pads

I always buy from Rockauto, but check if the part is on Amazon for comparable price for the free shipping. With brake parts especially I highly recommend buying the best you can afford. Cheap pads and rotors will be noisier and more likely to warp and give vibration when braking. The cheapest pads are also usually bonded meaning the friction material is only glued onto the backing plate, and I’ve seen them separate, especially a risk if you drive where rust is an issue. Also cheap pads don’t always include abutment clips and good shims.

Pros: good quality, long lasting
Cons: noisy, warping, vibration

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

Pros: plenty of life left

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

Just for front brakes/rotors at my dealership they wanted $1,100. I found a shop that is highly rated and they got it done, plus an oil change, for $550. So half the dealership and an oil change to boot. I\u2019ll never go to the dealership again unless it\u2019s an electronics issue.

Pros: cheaper at local shop
Cons: expensive at dealership

I just put on Raybestos R-line pads and rotors on a 2010 Town and Country. Those vans are notorious squealers. The trick is to use the spray version of disc brake quiet.

Cons: notorious squealers

Raybestos Brake pads

Just replaced rear brakes on my ‘15 rogue with Raybestos E3 pads. I really had to force the pad into the new hardware clips. I did a quick google search and his seems to be an issue with E3 brake hardware. The original brake pads were also really tough to remove before I put the new ones in.

Pros: null
Cons: difficult installation
Vehicle: Nissan
