OEM pads are softer, provide better braking, are easier on rotors but create a MASSIVE AMOUNT OF DUST. The trade off for better stopping power is DUST. BMW uses the OEM super dusting pads because they provide great stopping power and are easier on rotors.

AXXIS Deluxe pads are a harder compound, wear rotors slightly faster, provide slightly less initial/cold stopping power but are VIRTUALLY DUSTLESS.

The difference in stopping power between the AXXIS Deluxe pads and OEM pads is negligible. The benefit if virtually no dust, for me, is well worth the slight stopping power trade off.
CORRECT !!
