There's nothing wrong with the OEM brake pads.

For no problems and warranty - stay with OEM.
Well, let's see. The last time I had OEM pads was quite some time ago. At the time I was getting my car washed twice a week @ $15 per and spending an extra hour or so cleaning dust off the rims in between. Then I spent about $400 on Axxis Pads and now I never have to clean my rims, the car gets washed once a week, max and the rims are always clean. In addition to that, my SA tell me that you, my friend, are correct. The pads are no longer under warranty but everything else is unless of course I want to replace my Axxis pads with BMW pads which I don't. I'll take my chances.
