How do I know when to replace brake pads?

Replace when pad thickness reaches 3mm or less, or when you hear squealing (wear indicator), grinding, or notice reduced braking performance. Compatible vehicles include 1990-2004 BMW M3, Z3, 525i and more.

What's the difference between ceramic and semi-metallic pads?

Ceramic pads run quieter and produce less dust but cost more. Semi-metallic pads offer better heat dissipation for heavy-duty use. Both provide reliable stopping power for daily driving.
