Textar Brake Pads- e39

[Patrick Bateman]

I've just got some Textar front pads from carparts4less. Looking in Textar's own catalogue it shows the same pads across all of the e39 range.

I thought they'd be specific to the M5/beefier models?

It's just looking on bmminiparts or realoem it shows the pads for the M5 as being a different part number from the rest of the range.

I'm very disappointed with Textar pads on my E34. Textar were OEM manufacturers but you won't get OEM compound spec from car parts 4 less.

How do you know?

I've used them whenever I've needed brake pads and have no complaints so far. The part numbers on the textar box match the part numbers on their own catalogue.

You changed the pads yet?

It's the same site but with any existing 'discounts' already applied, all the time.
