370mm front rotors means stock wheels will be a squeeze, no?
I want that rear kit!The F30 M-Sport Front and Rear Brakes seems nice as well, and are offered in Yellow, Red, and Orange. Cost below 2k:
But the cost does not include rotors etc:

The rear ones looks a bit off...I'm not too up to date with my BBKs on this car, but that looks like a great price... Just under 2K for front and rear BBK, who's gonna be first to make them work and do a write up :biggrinbounce:
What about those who bought the m5 new at 70k? Just because the current value of the car is below 20k in blue book it doesn't mean we shouldn't upgrade. Let be nice.Anyone put these $2000 brakes on their $10,000 car yet?? lmao lemme guess the brackets are $500 a set now!?
Yes the stock pads that come with it are incredibly dusty. I have only put 5000 miles on mine so I have not thought of replacement pads yet.I have now 500km on my BMW Performance brakes, and I am happy with them. The only problem is the dust, I had the Red Stuff pads with the original brakes, and they were super clean. With these Brembo pads ( Brembo Brake Pad 07.A076.14) the amount of dust is incredibly high. Even after few km in a city the front rims are very dusty. Does this happen to everybody? Any recommendations for replacement pads with less dusting? Thanks.
Thanks marlow rang him yesterday he's not back at work till 2nd Jan so hopefully should be sorted thenA little update on brackets here in Europe.
I have somebody in Northern Ireland, who can supply the brackets now. Any interest, drop me a PM and I supply the contact details.

There's no need re-balancing the discs.Firstly, People that are drilling the discs for the additional four holes, are they balancing the discs once drilled?
The 135i kit has from experience been a lesser quality build. They're the same brake kit in a different color, but the components used (seals etc.) don't seem to be the same quality. That's at least what I can remember from the discussion. I haven't had my hands on a set, so I can only relay hear/say from the thread.Are the 135i front calipers same as the performance brake kit 34110444738 calipers, is it only the colour that is different? As I can get the 135i calipers at a good price, better then paying ÂŁ850 for the kit, I just want to make sure be a 100% sure.
