Wanted: Low Dust No Noise Alternative to OEM Brake Pads for an X5M!

[upstate650]

OK all you forum sponsor/vendors - I need replacement pads for my 2011 X5M. I don't want the dust of OEMs, and big brake kits are a no go for me. I have looked all over, and can't find anything. Who has an alternative to OEM? I have heard good things about Akebono and a couple others.

Motivated buyer here, as my brakes are coming off to refinish the calipers, and I want to replace the pads while they are off.

WHO HAS SOME BRAKE PADS TO SELL ME!

I am looking for low dust pads too. When I had my e70 Carbotech made some pads for me. I had to send them the front and rear blank since at the time they did not have the pad blanks. I am not sure what pad size or shape are on the M's. Maybe give Carbotech a call and see if they can make you a set of pads with their Bobcat compound.
