Brake pad recommendations (by Brands/models)
I'm considering installing some Wagner ThermoQuiets on my E90; also have to replace the rotors. Anyone have any recommendations or advice, please share...thanks!

I recommend the factory oem's.
Suggestion is that you do not change your brake pad type to ceramic; i did that before and every time i hop in my car it squeaks a lot! Especially in the rain! Ate rear or front pads Ate rotors Textar pads! DONT GET CERAMIC! |

I did exactly the same and am happy with the results. No squeeks. My fronts are clean and the rears with OEMs are always dirty. I was tempted to get new OEMs but was afraid of getting the old dusty version.

Really? My wheels get dirty rather quickly.

I went with Zimmerman coated rotors and EBC Redstuff all around. No noise, great braking, no fade and very very low dust. There are a lot of great choices right now which is great.
