Been a bit of a stranger around these parts... :eeps Not much I can do from a ship, but I've been researching and trying to find a good set of brake pads for the X5. The OEM dust like its no tomorrow, and there are almost ZERO aftermarket options.

So far I've found EBC red stuff, Textar ePad, Carbotech and Akebono (OEM replacements?)... Its freaking killing me how little is available. Why can't StopTech just make a street performance pad for the X5M!

Ok rant complete. :biggrin

Jon said he found it for the X5M.... I'm confused.

EDIT: Found them.
Don't know why I have to go to two different sites to buy front and rear pads, but...

What did you do for your ZHP/ BMW / MINI today? #2

Akebono I had on my car wore out the rotors pretty quick....

X5m use completely different pads due to completely different calipers and rotors
