Thanks for sharing. It would be interesting to compare these to the Cobalt pads https://cobaltbrakes.com/shop/oe/bmw

Pagid's are a little cheaper (doesn't really matter) BUT will likely last longer than the Cobalt?

I ran them exclusively on both F80's and they are amazing. Only issue I ever had was running at 90+ ambient at COTA and started to get some fade in T1 and T12. To be fair was carrying 155ish into 12 and there's not a lot of time to cool things down before you hit T1...several very hard, technical braking areas between T13 to T20.

Big thing I'll be curious to understand is how does the brake by wire system adapt to pads that are way more aggressive. Still baffled they made that decision to drop true hydraulic brake interaction. But BMW does BMW

I'll be there instructing in April for Chin, will report back
