I loved my old Hawk pads, I detest OEM brake pads, way too much dust to be acceptable. Go with Hawk, PGR, Akebono, or whatever your favorite brand is (mine is the Hawk that Acute Performance sells). And install them yourself. There are DIY's here on the forum and really, it's not hard.

Curious if the material has changed on the brake pads. The e60 had the terrible brake dust and our F10 has ZERO! Clearly, a material change has taken place but I am not sure what type. I curious if the e60 BMW pads will change to this new material...?

That'll be great though but I highly doubt it.
