Front Pad and Rotor time - suggestions?

Post by smtguy »

It's time to replace the front stock pads and rotors on my e24. I want pads that wear well and do not create dust, and whatever is decent for rotors. What is everyone using these days, and where is the best place to buy?
Thanks in advance for the suggestions.

Agree with Brick... some nice and quiet ceramic pads and any known brand of rotor.

Thank you Gentlemen for your advice,
I wound up getting OP parts Ceramic Pads from Pelican Parts and Zimmerman rotors from Parts Container. Excellent drama free service from both companies, great pricing and and I am pleased with the results.
