The PFC 08 are odviously in great condition but probably won’t need to get them back on until I improve driver skill or get some more mechanical skill and space to do the swaps myself. How long can they sit? Does it make more sense to sell them and pick them up again at a later date?
PFC Z rated are a great low dust pad that are going to be compatible with the heavier duty PFC track pads. Excellent choice.

Brake pads not on a vehicle will last forever... as long as they are in a dry environment.

OEM BMW pad is Textar... I think I have a few spares lying around also.
