Hi-

I'm going to make a foray into changing the brake pads (and possibly the rotors) to my '98 M3 sedan, something I've never done before. I've done a search on the subject on this forum, and I think I have the info I need- thanks previous posters.

As far as the actual brake pads, though.......The original pads produced a lot of dust and I'd like to avoid that in the future. Can you guys reccommend (and maybe provide an internet link for purchase) a good set of pads that are at least as good as the originals braking performance-wise but don't produce dust? I just use the car for day to day driving and do not take it to the track.

Thanks for your help......

P.S. Where is a good/safe place to put jack stands on my E36 to support the car? Is there a page in the Bentley manual that refers to this?

Get some PBR metalmasters or other quality pads. You are always going to get dust, but you may be able to get reduced dust using a different pad. Check with some of our suppliers in the "Market Place" section.
