Super Blue works fine in BMWS. I have had it in my car for 1 1/2 years and eight track days.

You guys may be limited on pad choices but..if you contact companies like KVR they may make some for you or have some made. If they were sent a stock M5 pad for a pattern they could do it easily I believe.

I just switched in my E345 from Perf. Friction Z rated (okay, no fade but they wore fast when hot) to Cool Willy's from Turner Motorsport in the front. I am going to leave them on until my next event but plan on switching them out and running my Mintex on the street. I can change the fronts in less than 1/2 hour and 1 beer.

If you are going to track your 4000lb car regularly, learn to work on the brakes yourself. It is not that complicated and is in fact really easy. Either buy a pressure bleeder or install easy bleed nipples on your calipers so you can do quick brake bleeds. Even with Super Blue this is necessary.
