I did a search and didn't spot any threads on this (which is odd) hopefully I didn't miss it. If I did - my apologies in advance.

It's time for front and rear pads (and rotors) on a 2012 Xdrive 35i Sport - daily driver. Looking for pad recommendations.

FWIW I live in Seattle so I'm often in rain and occasionally snow. I'm happy to go with Semi-mettalics over ceramics but just want to make sure the car stops as fast as possible (brake dust sucks and is ugly...but it's better looking than a crumpled front end) and that the brakes are quiet. I want the best but don't want to want to add a big brake kit/system or anything like that.

So what do you guys recommend (semi-mets or Ceramics?) Any specific brands/models you like?
