I was only comparing OEM options though, not considering aftermarket BBK since I want to keep my cars as stock as possible for warranty purposes.

Hi, I have seen elsewhere on forums that f10 m5 steel rotors work with F80 ccb calipers
No personal experience, just researching because I had wanted to upgrade brakes at one point |

The fronts do fit but require 2 2.5mm spacers on the front calipers and you have to drill out the center bore area if I remember correctly

Working on adapting the Z54 PFC caliper to the F8X front suspension as we speak! |

Thanks. Do you have any pics of the ccb's in fully worn state? Wondering when you pulled the plug. By indicator, weight, or both?

They're still on the car and being used but the indicators do not look happy. I can PM a pic when I see the car next

It sure would be nice if PFC did the legwork and then develop a Z54/Z45 F/R kit for the F8x I’m glad I decided not to wait when PFC said it would be “about a year” when I asked them more than 1.5 years ago. However, even though I’m a huge PFC fan, I’m extremely happy with the performance of the Essex/AP 9668/9449 kit I ended up going with. |

I'm sure the big AP kit is very comparable, but as I'll still use the E90 having the same pads and rotors on both cars is a huge, huge plus. The more variables we minimize the better! The latest PFC guy was like 'dammit people are already done it, you just need a couple shims!' so I'll remove the Z54 from my E92 and see what happens. A bracket manufacturer is willing to do it so hopefully this will work! |

At first I was disappointed PFC wasn’t offering a kit for the F8x. However, after using the Essex/AP 9668/9449 kits for ~1.5 years, I have no complaints and have had no issues. |

No doubt. The CS is definitely not for show. Which track? How are the times compared to your e9x M3s? Have you had to adjust your driving style compared to how you drive the e9x? |

The bmw service can do a conversion to CCB steel, but you will have to pay a tidy sum. I paid about 15k. Better to find a craftsman who will do half the price, of course I can give contacts, but you will need to negotiate with him. After redoing will need to watch the rotors, as a small child, so they do not start to rust. Because if they start to rust, it will require a complete disassembly, and it will take a long time. You can see how to clean metal here https://trimthatweed.com/how-to-clean-wrought-iron/ . And for the future, look out for aluminum rotors, they don't rust and are lighter.

If you don't wanna go for a proper BBK, instead of using the drilled M2C rotors, why not use these?
https://www.girodisc.com/Front-Rotor...M4_p_6907.html at least for much better heat dissipation compared to OEM.
