Thank You!

Aren't that many options for BBK's for our cars aside from maybe Ksport or D2. Other than that for the most part, 4pot calipers are already pretty damn efficient. Remember, the BBK's yes are larger in size but they run smaller pistons though more spaced out to cover more surface area when clamping.

Not a lot of people do have them. They're in the 3k-6k range and the fact you have to have the wheels to clear them takes it more money if you don't already have the AMG 18" or some aftermarket 18s. They're just not one of those "practical" mods people do first.

Search the name aznoptics of you want to see pictures of BBK from
Brembo.

Love the BBK Mike! Just a question, does't the rear calipers have to be placed on the door side rather than the rear bumper side?

i don't understand why bmw and MB doesn't make the disks and calipers bigger... i mean the OEM ones stop my car in 106ft which is great, but they look like coasters...
