MSport Front Wheels Brake Caliper vs Rear Wheels
I just noticed the MSport Front Wheels Brake Calipers are bigger than the rear wheels brake calipers. Are there specific reasons for that? That just seems a little odd to me. I would think that all 4 brake calipers would be the exact same size given that this is an x-drive.
Any insights would be appreciated. |

I didnt read the article, but on just about any car in the world, your front brakes do 75% of the work. Consequently, you'll replace the front pads 2-3 times before you'll ever need to do the rears.
And, yes, they are always larger. |

That and much more of the practical baseline knowledge on car braking systems is what the article details, hence why I posted it :-).
