I purchase the red Mperformance BBK upgrade for my 2014 328i..... it was a nice upgrade. I also removed them before trading in.
When I purchased my 2016 340i, it had blue sport brakes. I though I'd re-install my red performance brakes..... only to learn that they were the exact same. In fact, the rear brake rotors wouldn't work, because the e-brake was too large. So I installed red Mperformance calipers..... on the stock sport rotors. Mperformance BBK is a huge ripoff. All it is..... is red paint, and dimpled rotors. They are not any larger/better than standard sport brakes. The G05 is no different. |

I want the same M drilled rotors as i have on my F16. Threw out ones that came with BBK. One bolt did not fit either on front or back, but this did not affect anything.
Drilled rotors make a huge look difference. I have a M50i coming soon. Not sure which drilled rotors would fit. If none - this will be a sad moment for me. |

Just an off question, would the rear rotors from a X3M fit on the M50i?
I thought they had the same size hub. |

This question has been posed before. The answer is "maybe".
Personally, I don't think so. I've watched videos on rear brake changes on both cars. While they operate in a similar manner, the calipers are different..... which means they bolt on differently..... which means the hubs are different. While they may be the same "size".... that doesn't mean they are the same offset, thickness, or have the same center bore size (or wheel bearing/axle size). There are too many other factors other than overall diameter and lug pattern. We won't know for sure until someone buys a set and tries them out. |

I had a set of X3M calipers sat here until last week, Ive sold them now though otherwise I could have taken measurements!
X3M rear bolt onto G20 / G30 / G11 without issue though, so Id assume G05 would be no different. |

So it looks like they're now advertising a 4pot rear for the F95.
Any thoughts? https://tro-nik.com/product/carbon-c...x5-f95-x5-f96/ |

for 23,000 Euro though??? No thanks. I've spoken with the Tro-nik folks SEVERAL times. They have helped me out TREMENDOUSLY when researching parts.... yet, I haven't spent a dime with them yet. To date, no reliable sources for rear BBK. Trust me.... when one arrives, I'll buy it and post up.

X5M calipers from an earlier generation will not work. Well, "maybe" they would, if you were to get same-year rotors, and have them re-drilled to the newer lug pattern. They definitely won't be a "direct fit" I paid $1600..... although I suspect I got a REALLY good deal.

No.... In fact, I went to BMW directly and asked this question. The bolts, and the brackets are NOT individually obtainable, because they come as part of the caliper. So, the only way to get a new set, would be to buy the whole caliper.
"Maybe" you can find a used set on eBay?? Doubtful But..... you can go aftermarket. Thanks to Tro-nix in Russia, they gave me the correct dimensions and length, so you may have more luck writing a few hardware suppliers and asking for a "M12 X 1.5 x 85mm" I went through this EXACT stress, because the initial shipment only included the calipers. Then, I wrote the seller, and he graciously went back out to the car and pulled off the brackets too, as well as the bolts, because i wasn't able to source them anywhere.

I'm not sure what is available for the X5M calipers.... but whatever it is, it HAS to be better than those OEM pads. They literally squeal SO LOUDLY every time I apply the brakes at slow speeds. If I'm stuck in traffic.... constantly stop and go.... the squealing is enough to give you a brain aneurism.
Anyway... I wrote RGSport again. I'm sure they'll hook me up
