Brembo Ceramic Pads?

ferocity02 · 12-22-2020, 12:20 AM

I'm looking for ceramic pads simply to reduce brake dust and noise. I know I'll take a slight hit in bite and braking power and thats okay. This car is my DD.

I noticed that Brembo makes ceramic pads for the 135i. I figured since the calipers are Brwmbo too it may be a good combo. They are also dirt cheap, about $130 for a full set front and rear.

Unfortunately there are very few reviews of these. Anyone run them?

Going to be putting on Stoptech rotors at the same time too.

Don’t know them but I run EBC red stuff and they grab better then OEM and way less dust.

Our most popular pad for the F2x/F3x/F8x with the Brembo Sport calipers. Go search on those forums.

Ended up going with EBC Redstuff. There wasn't enough feedback on the Brembo pads for 1-series.
