It's not too bad, but I plan on switching the pads to a carbon fiber/ ceramic pad when they're available.

What carbon ceramic pads do you typically use?
|
On my M3 I run the Powerstop Z23 pad. I talked with Powerstop and they're supposed to start working on getting them made for the X5.
|
How is their run life? I'm assuming the main reason to use them if for brake dust. Is it worth the premium?
|
They're cheaper than OEM, less dust, last longer than OEM and stop as good as, if not a little better than OEM.
|
I though they'd be more expensive. Is there any data backing up the stopping distances vs oem?
|
Nope just me driving the car back to back with the pads.
