If you are looking for more initial bite, I would recommend the Hawk HPS, http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/brake...se+Model&a=AH8

I personally use these on all of my cars and have been very satisfied. I have found they have more initial bite than the factory pads and do not fade. (at least on the street). *At this point Hawk only builds this pad for the front of the vehicle.
I agree, in the past BMWs had more initial but but the X3 just feels like marshmallows.

So the HPS should improve not just initial but but overall feel too?

I'm fine just getting the fronts since most of the braking force is in the front

Thanks so much Keith!
