I need to change my brake pads as they are down to 1mm away from the sensors.
With the "Ring" trip in mind, & keeping the existing 330 discs & calipers - what pads should I use to give the best performance & reduce fade ?

I can highly recommend Pagid Fast Road Pads. They will work really well with the standard discs. The other good mod is a set of braided hoses with dot4/5 fluid.

I can second this...Pagid Fast road pads were fitted to my E36 - no complaints from me. I bought mine from German & Swedish

sounds like no copper grease was applied when your pads were fitted?

Yeah, pad squeal is normally due to the pad shimmering in the caliper. Bit of copper grease or the like should sort it.
