Brake pads Raybestos or OEM BMW

Good brake pads 250 and 30 minutes of work.

For me, this car is all about the brakes in terms of gaining lap time. You need to really trail hard into and during the corner and of course it’s a rocket after that.

From brakes have been solid

Love my Raybestos ST43 on my Corvette for the track with 200 series tires. They can be a bit annoying on the street.

Raybestos Element 3 in the Forester (surprisingly good pads and cheap AF)

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.

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

I have the Raybestos EHT on my ol' Camry and Avalon. They lack longevity and will pulse toward then end of their usable life. The quality control has slipped a little of the years. You might have to file fit them(as with any pad). I'd say that they won't tolerate a hack installer. My EHT stopped better than my Akeboner proacts.

I got Raybestos pads+rotors back in December… 4mo later and already vibrating when braking so prob warped the rotors, and the pads already squeal at low speed braking.

You bought a BMW and now have to pay to keep it running and this is what it costs.
