Akebono Euro Pads for M-Sport Brakes (395mm rotor)?

gofast182 · 06-21-2021, 08:42 AM

I'm soon going to be in the market for new pads for the X5. It has been tricky to find decent ceramic pads that are specifically for the large M-sport brakes. My preference is to use Akebono Euro pads but I haven't been able to find a site with an application selector to see if they make something that fits. Anyone using these yet?

Nobody? How about different brand ceramic pads for the 395mm rotor?

I have not had to change the front yet. I did have to change the rear. I used the Z23 power stop pads, works as good as OEM no dust.
