2003 X5 4.6IS Front Brake Pads - Local to Buy Choices

Have done some reading today regarding people's advice's on the replacement of the front brake pads.

I know that the best is from The Bmw directly , but when i called they said for the front is $231.51 plus tax , wow... really good price.

To buy online , not sure if i can wait as i may have to change them this weekend.

I did some research, and i also asked the dealer regarding the regarding "dust" getting on the rim, and they said , they do some dust , but they will not s-quick .

I went to napa ,as they are a sec. place where you can find stuff really closed to original (i leaft autozone and oreillyauto alone , as they may have some junk stuff pads)

Now, at napa they do have quite few pairs for front , and i was looking at this:
NAPA AUTO PARTS,
NAPA Ultra Premium Brake Parts at $85 lifetime
################################################## ########
Premium Engineered Friction Formulations: Semi-Met
OE Exact Style Slot, Shim, & Chamfer, Where Applicable.
Several OE & Aftermarket Equivalent Friction Formulations, The Most In The Industry.
Quiet Friction Formulations.
Guaranteed Quiet & Certified Safe.
Noise Free Guarantee For The Life Of The Pads.
################################################## ########

They do have some cheaper and some over 100$, but i think is little to much to spend right this moment.

My pads have the Dual Caliper system and looks like they don't have many at the parts store like this.


So anyone have used that napa brand? from above?.


Any advice on this will appreciate.

Thanks
