Brakes squeaking!! 2018 base m5

I know there's multiple forums created on this but certain people have had different reviews/experiences with the ACG Ceramic Kevlar pads and the Porterfield..

I have a 2018 Base model and looking for some serious feedback and if you could provide me with some part #'s that would be amazing!

If I didn't know any better I'd say those are the same, and you're right there are a ton for threads on the topic. One just a couple of weeks ago.

TL.DR: Get them and move on with your life.

LOL

Not sure what that means....but it's funny.

What is Facebook? Isn't that the Communist Recruitment Team website?

Thank you! I'm assuming the M8 and M5 have the same pads since it says M8 under description?

After reading several comments and doing some research, I ordered the ACG carbon/kevlar pads and will have them installed soon. At minimal, the brake dust should be dramatically reduced.

Thanks Doc, I'm more concerned about the squeaking sound which is very annoying but keep me posted!

All squeak less than the stockers.
