Default Brake recommendations?

Looking to get new brake pads for my 17 Jaguar XE 35T Premium. Not sure what brands to go with any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

The pads and discs on my 2017 XE are Jaguar origin, The fronts were put on as a warranty claim shortly after I bought it after I complained about steering wheel vibration when braking. The Jaguar pads throw off very little dust, quite astonishing how little, really. However I don't know who the supplier to Jaguar is. If you can get a pad off and look to see if the maker is still shown, you could then source these on the aftermarket. There are lots of pad makers around, but some of the pads they sell throw of lots of dust making it a chore when washing the car and the wheels.

I can agree with the lack of dust produced by the OE pads. They don't seem to suffer performance wise for that either. They do have a strange odor to them when given a thrashing though, something my other cars don't seem to produce.

For street driving, I'll stay with the OEM. They work fine, little dusting, long life.
