I've noticed that pedal feel is softer compared to stock with a weak initial bite. I have to depress the pedal quite far down to feel any considerable stopping power. I've reached out to my dealer about this and they said that it is typical during the break-in period and should get better once the pads have been properly set. Was that the case for you as well after the upgrade? |

As for the Italian brake job, would 8-10 rounds of braking from 60-10mph be enough? That seems to be common bedding process from what I have read in different threads. |

I upgraded my 2021 M340 from the "stock" blue M performance calipers/rotors (348mm?) to these bigger ones (375mm?) that come with the Track/Handling package. I would've ordered that Pkg if only I would've known it came with larger ones! I thought it was only tires/fan/cooler. I had my BMW parts dept. order the various order numbers for the front rotors and calipers.
I have my Blue M performance brakes that come on the stock M340 are available - if anyone wants them! (less than 500 mi on them, perfect cond.) PM me if interested

395mm is not an option offered by BMW for any of the G2x cars. Red M Performance calipers are 374mm on the G2x The 395mm M Perf slotted / dimpled rotor is for 5, 7, 8 & X5 / X6 models. 395mm can be fitted to the G2x with the larger 395 caliper (available in grey unpainted finish, blue or red). |

Does anyone know the number for just the disks that come with the set (with the slots)? I like the blue calipers than came stock with the cooling/tire package (374mm disks) but wouldnt mind the slotted discs. I assume they sell just the discs in case someone needs to replace them but I couldnt find any separate part numbers so far.

Great post and images - helped me make my mind up on buying this for mine (non-track pack M340i). Only issue… 2 month delay due to BMW supply issues!! I was aware of part shortages regarding computer chips etc. but didn't think this would be something that would be affected, oh well, Christmas soon come.

Hi there! Nice job on the upgrade!! Not looking to do this myself, I have a G20 with the M Sport brake package and happy with them.
I am just curious about one thing, not even fully related to your work as well haha. Can someone tell me what the rods are/do on the disk hub? I have them, and I just simply want to know what they are for |

Arrived earlier than expected. Happy with the results! I know blue is synonymous with BMW, but the M Kit, in my opinion, makes the car look much sportier.
