Replace front brake pads

I need to get the front brake pads replaced on my '09 135. I have the factory drilled rotors. They (not a dealer) want to use ATE pads. I always understood the originals were either Pagid, Jurid or Textar. RealOEM.com used to say what they were, but doesn't any more.

Anyone have any experience with ATE pads? If so, Any comments or advice?

It's a city driving car only, so noting special required.

Thanks in advance.
B.

Im not 100% sure but i think i can say with confidence that it's Textar...you can get them online for around $60-65 for a set.

I have used ATE only with rear on my e36 M3 (with zimmermann cross drilled rotors)...they are alright, nothing special about em...quality wise its a good for the price, but overall Textar are better in my opinion, seems to be less noise and about the same dust (please note that I'm comparing e36 M3 ATE to E82 128i Textar on stock rotors).
