Looking for a stock replacement brake pad for your E39 530i/540i/M5, E38 740i, E31 850i, or E53 X5 3.0i/4.4i? The StopTech Street pads have all of the qualities and engineering of their Sport pads but in a street-friendly formula that is ideal for regular day-to-day driving.
Choosing the best brake pad for your driving is a critical safety decision, in addition to other considerations. What we use on the race track, or even autocross, is rarely what we would recommend for the street. The StopTech Street pads were formulated using all of the same braking expertise as their other pads and brake kits but with a pad formula that makes them very livable and user-friendly on the road.
StopTech Street Pad Attributes -
- Engineered strictly for street use, just like an OEM pad
- BMW model-specific pad formulas
- Moderate initial bite (not so much that they're 'touchy')
- Smooth and quiet modulation
- Low dust (unlike factory BMW pads!)
- Easy on rotors and very good pad wear rates
No brake pad is a one-for-all answer for BMW enthusiasts. These pads work best when used for daily driving and commuting but will not work well in a track environment (maybe autocross). For spirited street driving, autocross, or very light track use the StopTech Sport pads will be a better option. For all-out track use with zero street, we have plenty of race compounds to choose from. If you need advice or assistance choosing brake pads, give one of our knowledgeable sales staff a call or e-mail and we'll be happy to help.
