Eeee

I had a BMW Performance brakes on E90 , the yellow/gold ones. The car is mainly for sport (Le Mans type 8 hours) custom roll cage. And I actually destroyed one of the front ones and one of the rear ones in about a hour or so. One was totally scrwed , almoust in half.

And we moved to Alcon / Brembo GT 6 spot. But it's the sport.

Now I have bought F30 performance front and read brakes which are 4 and 2 pot and they are HEAVY. Altrought pistons are large they doesn't look much like they have much power to stop anything. More like a cosmetics. And it's for 2 grands.

I would suggest (if you can) , to buy either a 6 pot Brembo GT with custom rotors for F30 or go for Alcon/Ap Racing if you need any braking.

If it's mainly for road accident protection , then I guess stock 335i is enought.
