Hi Vlado, no the thing is when I bought calipers from E70 X5M they already came with everything - since it was a take off from salvage yard 2012 X5M with 60k miles - so it had BMW oem pads in them already. I guess X5M guys maintain their vehicles top notch
Please see pics attached below (dirty calipers and then washed by me - you can see large square pads for brembo calipers)

P.S. when i installed tech said they were like 80% left ( so I decided to keep them instead of buying new) - that's for me 1-2 years of driving lol (I don't drive much due to constant study process - I'm in med.school and have no life basically, except modding x5 and exams lol)
