recommended front brake

Hi,

Getting a new pad and disk soon, and wondering which would be better Bosch or Brembo. Brembo was a little bit cheaper but not that much of a different.

Part nr.
Bosch pad : 0 986 461 122
Bosch disk: 0 986 478 288

Brembo pad: P 56 031
Brembo disk: 08.5691.10

If anyone recommended any other brand please do let me know, I'm looking for a quiet brake.

And anyone know who were the oem for the k11 brake? Bosch?
 
Many years ago I bought some Blueprint pads for mine which I highly rated, so I bought some more as spares from the same supplier a very short time later, only to find they were a completely different material, those second set of pads are now on and compared to the first ones generate more heat.
My point being that someone could recommend a particular brand but there is nothing to say you will get the exact same pads they have.
Edit I forgot to say Ferodo could well have been the OE supplier being based in the UK, they also had a dedicated facility for Sumitomo brake pads.
