I need front and rear pads fitting to my 640d.

Does anyone have strong views on which brand would be an acceptable alternative to BMW?

Euro Car Parts sell Brembo, Pagid and Textar. They are all about the same price but for the fact that the Textar rear pads are about double the price of the others - the fronts are all similar.

GSF sell VeTech and "PREMIUM" - not very confidence inspiring.

A local BMW specialist suggested Brembo are prone to squeaking; that would have been my first choice going on the fact that I thought they were premium brand.
