Brake pads Textar or Mintex

I did change my F30 with Textar and it was plug n play. No need to go big if you don’t go on track days often imo.

Adam's front and rear ventilated rotors. Mintex front and rear brake pads. Motul DOT 5.1 Synthetic brake fluid. Goodridge G - Stop stainless steel braided brake lines.

I beat the hell out of some OE Textars in 110+ heat at Buttonwillow and they held up admirably. You don’t need anything more for the street.

I always had good results with textar and Zimmerman.

I use all Textar disks and pads and they are excellent.

I've got mintex in mine at the moment and they're not too bad, they weren't very expensive but they seem to do the job

Quality pads and rotors tend not to warp out in a couple hundred miles. If you bought Durlast junk from Autoroo then that's the reason. Stick with OE/OEM Quality like ATE rotors and Textar pads.

Textar pads are OEM I believe. My advice is just avoid brembo pads. Mine create so much dust my wheels look awful a day after being cleaned

I didn't like the Mintex Redbox pads on my Passat. They overheated too quickly and felt spongy.

I used Mintex red's on the 54's - once, a while ago - and I was not impressed.
