BRAKES

Brake Dust on the M235i...is suppose to be bad
I read a mention about Akebono Corp going to have soon
an exact fit for the M235i in brake pads...presume their
ceramic...listed as EUR 1609 and EUR 1656
Would appreciate some feedback with this Company
Another question in theory would this approve brake feel?
and perhaps performace overall

Akebono is a major worldwide player in the brake industry with large aftermarket volume, and also a supplier to the OE manufacturers. The likely experience with the EUR pads will be about the same as the original, except quiet and dustless. I've noted that brake feel and performance stayed about the same in the three cars where I made the change. I suspect achieving the same performance, but with quiet and dustless results, is likely their objective. There are other pads for high performance use, but the EUR series has a different reason for being.
