Hey new to this forum and i was wondering what would be the best brakes for my 2005 525i and also do i have to change the brake senor once i do a brake job

 

I'm on Hawk HPS pads. Very low dust and bites better than OEM. PM member acuteperformance (Michael).

 

that is what i was thinking but a friend of mine told me about power stop rotors and pads and the they work good on his car which is 2010 maxima but i dont now how it may be on a bmw and then another friend told me to just do it through the dealer

 

Hawk HPS pads are the way to go. If you're unhappy I will gladly take them back.

Stoptech SportStop Rotors + Street Performance Brake Pads are always a winning combo.

The brake sensor doesn't necessarily need to be replaced unless you trip the brake warning light on the dash, but it's a relatively cheap part so you might as well replace it.

 

Michael also sells R1 Concepts rotors as well. I bought a whole cross\drilled slotted with pads set from him. I'm happy with them. The dealer would sell you OEM pads which seem too dusty for me.

 

Thank you. I stand by my products and since I'm the owner of the company I call the shots. If you're not happy, I will personally make sure you are taken care of, within reason of course.

I got Zinc coated Zimmermann discs with EBC yellow stuff pads. Very happy with the looks and performance!

I also had my calipers stripped and professionaly sprayed red.

 

Your setup is what I was going to do. EBC yellow and drilled rotors are a good combo!

Joey:

If you have the loot go stoptech, If you have a lil loot find a 545/550/535's front brakes and do the swap or go big with M5's brake system!!!

If your on a budget Michael can get you going.

 

Yeah I've found it a great mix. Also did a fluid flush at the same time which helped.
