Lightbulb Horrible brake squeaking!!!!

Hey guys how’s everyone? I’m just curious if anyone else experienced this, it’s very annoying is there some type of brake pad aftermarket that somebody has put on that reduces this because I feel like for a super expensive car driving around with the brakes squeaking all the times pretty annoying !!!

Its been talked about a lot, I have never had it, I tend to heavy brake 70% of the time, I think if you do town driving it is much worse.

I was told to install ACG Automotive breakpads - did front and rear, however they were not fitting like OEM. And actually one of the front pads was so big my brakes "glued" to the rotor on the highway and I had some heavy vibrations on steering wheel to say it easy. It only happened on one of them tho, the rest work just fine - I think the stopping power is also worse but that might be limited due to one of pads not working properly.

Hit up ACG through Instagram 3 days ago and so far no reply but by reading other comments about them I think they're not "ideal" but just work for some people.

I don't think ACG pads will work as good as OEM. I had them on another car and it was not the same. That's why Im holding off for a different solution for the squeaks.

I have had the ACG brakes installed since December of 2019. I installed them and there was no issue with the installation. I do not track my M5 but have been known to do some spirited driving. With that being said I have had no issues with stopping or brake fade.

I have no issues with 3 breakpads out of 4... The one is making a problems and from what I noticed before there were a bit of design "flaws" for some people like bad sensor placement etc. unfortunately for me the ACG seems to ignore the case.
