If you are a m340i owner with the blue 374mm you are literally fitting the same brakes again with the addition of red paint & new discs.
If you are a regular G20 owner with the blue 348mm set up, there are much cheaper ways to upgrade to either 374mm or 395mm!! |
If what you're saying is true, that the red M-Performance brakes are IDENTICAL to the blue brakes that came in the track handling package, then it's a huge rip-off to pay $2700 plus installation for some slotted rotors and red paint.
But are they identical or are they different? Yes, they are the same size... But do the M-Performance brakes perform better?
I'm not doubting you. I just want the facts. If same size means same performance couldn't you say the same thing about the M-Performance exhaust - it's the same size as the original exhaust so you're paying $1500 for the M-Performance logo stamped on it?
