New brake pads
Need to replace front and rear pads. Have priced several options and tend to lean towards just getting them from dealer and getting an Indy to fit. Tempted by cheaper options from Eurocarparts, not garbage, but just wondered what anyone else had done. Don't want anything noisy and cetainly would like less dust as my alloys get very black with the current BMW pads.

What dealer will sell you is textar/pagid which you can get from eurocarparts cheaper.

Re: New brake pads
Eurocarparts have Pagid Textar and ATE with the latter being the most expensive. Not sure on how these all compare as there is quite a price difference.

Re: New brake pads
Ordered Pagid today from Eurocarparts, with the current 31% off it made the front and rear pads with two new sensors £95, compared with the dealers cost after 10% discount of £270 it really was a no brainer.
