Dunno what size they are on the H26?

If std then either stock BMW are fine, or ATE power discs (from ECP) are good if you want grooved - thats what i use

They're drilled and drilled discs can be prone to cracking - a good modern pad shouldnt create much gas anyway, so the holes are a bit pointless, a grooved disc should allow some gas to escape anyway

If you're looking to improve your braking performance (without fitting bigger discs/callipers) then upgrading your pads and fluid will make by far the biggest difference

Ferodo DS2500 pads are great but pricey, mintex 1155 are a bit cheaper and supposed to be good
Fluid wise go for Motul RBF600

Then maybe think about some braided hoses for better feel

If you really want new discs then go for the ATE power discs I suggested above - they were good enough to win the nÃarburgring 24hr in an m3
