They did it right in the E90/92, those were the best stock brakes I have ever had on a car. They were rock solid with no issues and grip for days.

Maybe they dumbed down the F80/82 brakes because of the CCB option, I don't know, but they used to be awesome. Now they suck.


The brakes on the F8X are the best of any M3(4) thus far. I've owned an E46, an E92 and now an F82. All are/were tracked extensively (16~20 track days per season). I can attest the the brakes on the F8X are better than the ones I had on my previous ///Ms.
I disagree. They muffed up the pad or rotor compound. They don't play nice together.

In the E90/92, they played very well together, no matter how hard you used them.
