BMW M Carbon Ceramic Brakes (CCB) - service PDF
Hi Guys,
Over in the M2 forum we've been having a debate on the pro's and con's of CCB's. I mentioned that besides the visible CCB wear indicators you also must disassemble and weigh the ceramic rotors - for wear. Its not necessary to do that now - although there is a min ccb weight loss of 100 gram per rotor. Here are some interesting pdf's on checking for wear on CCB brakes. Its nice to have friend's at BMW AG. Dackel

They really should have painted the CCB calipers green, because that's what you need to buy them!

I wouldn't even want to think about how much it costs to service/replace them...

Heh, I wish it was $5k in parts. You're at least 3 fold off.

I love the way they look, but so far I regret the purchase because of this issue.

The functionality at this point only pays off if you are constantly tracking the car, but then again a Brembo or similar BBK will do the job as well without the heavy costs!

Reduced unsprung weight is worth its weight in gold, no pun I would not be able to go back to steels now. Very nimble. The wheel fitment issue is a non issue I feel.
