Default Brake Pad and Rotor - OEM Brand

Hi Guys,

I want to get rid of the break dust (if possible). Are there any rotors and pad that will not have break dust and yet efficient.

Also, what OEM brand of brake rotors (preferably those ventilated ones as they look cool), brake pads and brake fluid have you guys used on your E60 that you will always stick by?

My breaks would be coming up soon, and so I am starting to prepare for this DIY.

P.S.How expensive is to change the part which holds the brake pads and are coloured.

Thanks.

I'm very happy with the R1 rotors and Hawk pads I got from Michael https://5series.net/forums/vendor-cl...es-e60-117383/
If you're talking about the stamped metal spring clips check RealOEM. I used a wire brush and cleaned mine before painting them.
