435d upgraded brake disc/pad options

[cw200]

Hi all,

Looking for some advice please. I have a 2015 F32 435d which has been remapped to 400bhp. Lovely, but obviously I would like to upgrade the brakes to help rein this in. Car is on the standard 340mm front set up. I was looking the MTEC pads and discs but I wanted to know if there is any particular groove pattern/drilling that is best (both noise and performance). Any advice and options would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Stay away from Mtech; utter ste...

They're Mintex discs that have been cut to the style... One piece too...

Stick with the correct OEM spec 2 piece discs for the correct weight and heat distribution; pads also, or look at upgrading the pads to the likes of Ferodo DS2500 or similar...

I run OEM BMW M Performance discs & pads on my F31 and they've been superb/faultless... You could just stick with blank discs also

Textar & Jurid make most of the Fx range of brakes; Brembo make the calipers. Other OEM brands are TRW & ATE also; all these can be found on Autodoc

But the likes of Douglas Park BMW do some good offers on brakes via their eBay shop; you could try Cotswolds BMW too for prices; and then look at Autodoc

Click on the pics and click again to get the full res images... They're the 370/345mm brakes FYI...

They'd be a good upgrade for you if you can find them at a decent price I reckon...
