X1m35i M Compound Brake upgrade?

BarrettDB · 03-30-2024, 08:54 PM

I'm taking delivery of a 2024 X1m35i next week - and it has the M Compound brakes - which is something that was essential for my order. The front brakes are fine, and likely the rear brakes too - but I'd like to upgrade the rear brakes to match the front 4-piston cross drilled look. The U11 is pretty new, but does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? Note - there is no need for me to do this. It's primarily for improved visuals - but I would also benefit from improved performance. Note that I am not worried about the cost of brake pads or maintenance.

Pretty sure they are using the same brakes from any BMW with m-sport brakes IE m340i or X3m40i. Have a look for the rear rotor to match the fronts.
