Reduced dust Brake Pads?

[PeteM]

Does anyone know of any after market reduced dust brake pads available for the E70?

I have done a lot of web searches but haven't managed to find anything anybody out there come across any?

Dont think anything is available yet. i'm still waiting for Axxis brake pads for my e92 and its been almost a year since that car was introduced. Aftermarket products can be kinda slow with new models coming around so we just have to be patient.

They claim 40% Less dust
.
I have the Axis Pads on my VW Passat and they work GREAT - with significantly less dust. The EBC Pads are well known and should perform
with less dust without any performance loss.
.
The cost to convert the front & rears should be less than $200 DIY -- although, I wonder if this will void the warranty?
.
I am look at this very hard - my wife's E70 wheels stay covered in dust - even though we wash once a week.

Do you have a part number or contact for these?

I definitely need one of those REDUCED DUST brake pads. The wheels get dirty on the second day after car wash!!!

FWIW, Despite warnings from my local trusted BMW repairman, I put a set of Axxis Plus Delux on our old 328ic in 2004 & the loss of braking performance was obvious. It just wouldn't stop as well as it did with the (dusty) OEM pads.
I hate the dust but, it's hard for me to compromise on braking ability.
I just can't understand why BMW can develop such wonderful automobiles without a solution to the brake dust problem....

I too hate the dust, and find my self stocking up on the spray bottle cleaners and then every other day sitting in the driveway cleaning off the wheels of my new German dust makers! I'm then partially jealous of my neighbors with Japanese and American cars that somehow don't make anywhere near as much dust as I do, yet seem to stop within acceptable limits.. though probably not anywhere as good as I can.

Slightly OT
My wife had to make a quick stop on the highway in her X5 with her 70+ year old parents in the car (she didn't slam on the brakes enough to make them uncomfortable). Two cars behind her had to go to the shoulder to keep from rear ending the X5 because they couldn't stop in time..... We love this car!

I just put the Axxis deluxe pads on my car this weekend and I don't notice any reduction in performance at all. I still need to seat the pads. I'm looking forward to not having to clean the rims every other day!

I have also had excellent results with Axxis pads. Almost completely dustless and I have excellent stopping power. I am sure they will make them for the E70.
