I have fitted ATE Disks and Ferodo Pads....


With everybody talking of ATE, Textar, Jurid, Bendix and other brands... its funny that nobody mentioned Ferodos.. cos theyre actually quite good.

I got my ATE's from Midas about 2 weeks back. Was about R550 for a set of front pads for my 330i. Disks and pads all round came to R2600 including 2 sensors and some copper slip, agents quoted R6600 just for disks and pads excl fitment. No complaints so far.

This is what i can get:

Meyle R 685
Textar R 905

are e90 pads much more than e46? If not maybe midas is a better bet...

I bought rear Textar pads for around R 450.

ATE is the OEM braking system used on the E90's.

You can get EBC optimo front pads for around R 500 from Star brake and clutch in Edenvale.

I bought my ATE disc and EDC pads from them.

Hi Moranor

Would the EBC Ulitmax be a better brake pad than the Textar its cheaper as well?

I cant really comment I have 0 experience with both :rollsmile:
I am currently running EBC redstuff pads on my car Im pretty happy with them but for i know Ulitmax is rubbish...

I am inclined to say I would go with the Textar but that just because BMW uses them...

we are talking about saving a few hundred rand on something that lasts a very long time for me price is not nearly as important on this part as how it works...
