You got me thinking about your comparison of the M2C rear brakes to the F3x M Sport front brakes, so I pulled out specs that I collect to see if I had additional information. Pistons: M2C 28mm x 4 MS 40mm x 4 (Obviously it would take exact area measurements of pads to calculate force exerted by caliper pistons/pads on rotor surface) Rotors: (2-piece) M2C 380x28 21.0 lbs MS 370x30 26.5 lbs (This difference surprised me, if the weight that I had is accurate. It’s from Zimmermann specs, not from me weighing them as you did. Would seem that the design of the M2C 2-piece rotor is more efficient for weight savings. Anyway, cool video! Thanks for posting!

This brakes are awesome, i have them on m2c too. Rear OEM brake disc and pads are great. On front i am using girodisc brake disc and endless pads - fits like oem.

Calipers have a slight difference in fitting. can't use the M5/6 calipers with m2 rotors as they are thicker, use of brackets will come into play

For those unaware, friction is independent of surface area. In other words, more surface area does not mean more friction. I realize that's counterintuitive, but it is what it is.

@FaRKle007910 ай бұрын
You'd probably be best getting more street oriented pads. You can attempt doing a proper bedding, but any pad with decent metallic content (which performance pads have) can squeal.

@johnungvarsky88753 жыл бұрын
Thanks for another excellent video chock full of interesting details. It was interesting that pads didn’t have weights and no grease was used. On F3x brakes that would cause all kinds of noise and complaints. Was there noise when you were driving these stock M2C brakes? Maybe Brembo has engineered out the need for weights/grease with this caliper design?

So dumb question... these stock Brembo pads are not ceramic correct? I assume you'd want something else for track days. I wish I could find a pad that's good for track days + daily driving so I don't have to continually change them
@FaRKle00793 жыл бұрын
Yeah the stock pads aren't ceramic. Ceramic pads are for street pads. Track pads are typically metallic. Some of the Stoptech pads, EBC Yellowstuff, and Ferodo DS2500 can be dual used, but get eaten up at the track at a pretty high rate.
@hjkk.46813 жыл бұрын
Excellent video. Can anyone recommend aftermarket pads for streets and occasional track use but one that will produce less dust than the stock pads?
@FaRKle00793 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure something like that exists. Usually the "dual use" pads still dust a fair amount. You can look into EBC Yellowstuff, Ferodo DS2500 (these definitely don't dust any less), or Stoptech Sport pads for dual use. Just remember that dual use pads don't tend to last all that long at the track.
@nigel_white3 жыл бұрын
What a PITA to have to take the caliper off every time you have to change pads! It wouldn't have been so bad if you could do it by removing the Torx fasteners, but of course those are the ones BMW doesn't want you to touch. D'oh! At least the pads are pretty meaty, so hopefully you don't have to do it that often.

Yeah, and as petty as it sounds, that's a big reason I went for aftermarket calipers where I can swap without taking off caliper.

You can go to www.realoem.com to search through the available BMW brakes for your model/chassis. BMW offered 6-piston Brembo front calipers, but not 4-piston rears. If you want 4-piston rears you'll have to look at an aftermarket Brembo kit.
