Where to buy new rotors and pads?

Need to replace rotors and pads. Seems like bavauto is a good place...any other suggestions please?

Thanks

I purchased OEM rotors and pads from https://parts.bmwofsouthatlanta.com/

The pads produce quite a bit of dust, but the first bite is strong.

I haven't owned my e70 long enough to replace these parts, are they not available at the local Auto Zone, Advance Auto, etc?

Ended up going to OEMbimmerparts....brembo rotors and ceremic pads and sensor for $250 free shipping....Autozone/Advance typically don't carry rotors and their prices are too high plus they are their own brand

I used on the rear, power stop evolution sport, carbon fiber/ceramic, (part # z23-919b) from Amazon on my 2009 E70, 4.8i. Very little dust and work great.

I just did rear pads on rotors on my 4.8. Ordered online from FCPEURO as I always do. Went with Brembo rotors & Akebono pads. $260 for the kit and includes pad wear sensor, hand soap & anti squeak grease
Everything from fcp has lifetime warranty

I too have done this. My '07 E60, '08 E70 and '10 E70. I cannot complain at all. They are a great and affordable setup. BTW did this front and Rear.

I have used Zeckhausen for decades https://www.zeckhausen.com/catalog/?...C8YhoC993w_wcB and use Posi Quiet dustless pads. https://www.zeckhausen.com/catalog/p...ducts_id=17637 Zeckhausen has an excellent tech support line.

Love Dave Zechhausen...

But for run of the mill brake parts, Amazon Prime was great.
