If you are only changing the pads and sensor, then Pagid or Textar on Eurocarparts are the OEM. There's a code at present too: HOT30 for brakes.

I have not tried EBC pads yet but some mates who do drifting have and they love them. They also have good writeup in yank car mags. My E70 has brand new BMW pads (what a black mess they make of the wheels after one day on the autobahn) so I'll wear them down a bit then try EBC Yellow Stuff pads (yes that is their name).
EBC is British so God save the queen and all, non?

Have the Red Stuff fitted to mine and they are fantastic.
