Small brake pads are an important component in the car braking system, providing safety guarantees for our driving. Because brake pads are consumables, they will be gradually worn out during use. When they are worn to the extreme position, they must be replaced. Otherwise, the braking effect will be reduced and even safety hazards will arise.

My car is a BMW 525. I have been driving for more than two years now and have traveled more than 30,000 kilometers. When I went to the 4S shop for maintenance, I was reminded that the brake pads needed to be replaced after after-sales service. I also felt the brakes squeaking while driving, but the 4S shop replaced the price was 1500 yuan, so I gave up decisively and found my own way.
After searching various products, we found TEXTAR, Brembo, and GALFER. Brembo is too expensive. GALFER is a supplier of BMW’s original brake pads. It has a high cost performance ratio. It includes installation and also sent brake induction cables.

Finally, through a horizontal comparison, a friend recommended ordering the front brake pads + induction cable of Tmall Shanggarfa (GALFER Flagship Store) for free installation. The experience was so good!
