My Ride: 2012 535i xdrive M package
Default Brakes Help
Can anyone recommend brake pads and rotors for my 2012 535i xdrive M package other than the really expensive ones that the dealer sells?

I have to admit, BMW seems to have licked the brake dust problem with the F10 - how do the Zimmerman and Akebono compare?
Thanks
