Going to bring this up from the dead as there are a number of new pad options available for X5M front.. I put on powerstop z23 on the fronts and get a horrible squeal when i first back up. They work fine and dont dust but i hate the noise. going back to semi-metallic. options on rockauto are:
1. Brembo low-metalic - never heard of low-metallic $100
2. Centric posi quiet - $38
3. BENDIX CFM1429 Copper Free Semi-Metallic $45
4. BOSCH BP1429 QuietCast $54
5. BECK/ARNLEY 0892008 OE Pads (Pagid or Jurid) $62. - i believe these are direct OEM replacement
6. BOSCH BE1429 Bosch Blue - $23

anyone have any experience with any of these? I am leaning towards #5
