Installed iSweep 1500 brake pads
Installed these on my wife's X3MC right after she picked it up & it is probably the best $500 spent on her vehicle so far. Stop as well as or better than OEM and relatively no dust.
Was surprised to see the front calipers on the M2 were different than the X3MC. Pad change on the M2 requires caliper removal whereas it doesn't on the X3. My calipers were really stuck on there and requires a lot of hitting with a rubber mallet to get them loose. After that, the pad change was pretty quick. Rears were the same as the X3 and took about 10 min per side due to removing the parking brake. I need to go bed the new pads, but am happy to be rid of that horrible brake dust. Purchased from forum vendor RG Sport and they arrived in 2 days. Great vendor. ![]()

Also the oem brake dust is very corrosive. We purchased my wife's used with 15k mi & it was evident the previous owner didn't frequently wash the vehicle. The wheels have a lot of pitting in the finish if you look up close, most likely from the dust. Same time & miles on both cars. You can see the difference.

My oem pads squealed with only 500 mi, these are completely quiet. The car stops as well or better than stock.
