Min 26.4mm,so slightly over min, original disc's 68000 miles no track use, 14 year old disc, in my book that's a big thumbs up to BMW, ??

Thats a impressive mileage Chad.
Regarding your question on whats good depends, as always, on your goals and budget.
I am a track novice so i didnt want to spend 6000€ on AP brakes. So i went for uprated pads (Pagid RS29) and stainless steel brake lines and better brake fluid. ANd i have to say that it works very good. No brake fading even though i braked them cooking hot, to the point where my calipers are now golden :hahaha:
Sure you dont get the stopping power of the APs but that is to be expected.
Oh forgot, the pagid pads combined with the stock calipers are noisy as f*ck... but for a weekend toy its absolutely fine.
