Good e30 m3 pads for street? No noise, easy wear and low dust

[CMG]

Trying to figure out which pads to get. This is for m3 but doesn't matter. Gonna use zimmerman rotors and looking for strictly street pads that are easy on rotors with minimal noise and dust. My options from most expensive to cheapest are: jurid, stoptech street performance, ate, mintex, and meyle semi metallic. Suggestions?

Any ceramic street pad should be fine, avoid semi metallic.

I have heard great things about the stoptech street performance, but I have no personal experience.

I run Hawk HPS on mine, and they seem to be low dust and they have not made a peep since I installed them 400miles ago.

Stoptech Street Performance are NOT good street pads, I'm saying it. I bought a set for my car (albeit not an M3...) and they warped the rotors within just a month or so. They are TOO HARD for road use and get the rotors too hot. The guy from Stoptech said, "yeah, only use those on the road if you drive like an asshole all the time."

So there you go. I recommend Ate for best cold bite and good DD performance. There will be some dust, though.

I got zimmerman rotors and happened to get the stoptechs cuz they were good price and i didn't read this. I ended up picking up some other parts like powerslot rear rotors and performance friction front pads. Are those good for street?

I've run Jurid, Ate, Textar and Pagids and they all performed well. After replacing a damaged caliper I installed a set of akebono ceramics which perform as well but do not muck up my freshly refinished BBS RKs
