These are floating disc. Weight much less than regular brake disc.

 

Yes, IF non floating, then it would be MUCH MUCH heavier. Having it floating means the centre hub part of the disc is made of lighter material...

It still weighs a hell of a lot! I could barely carry the box with all the discs in it!

 

cool, I know the old m3 floating discs look like that too but couldnt tell for sure

 

thats not exactly right either. at the end of the day, its what material used that counts.

 

have to say that the parts on the m cars these days are disappointing but am surprised to hear they are that bad.

 

sounds like u found what you want, congrats!

 

I want brembo! but this is a good alternative! i only want the looks of the BBK rather than the performance.

If it stops an M5, then its alllll good!

 

our forum is quite today. any news , all e60 buddies?

 

its all physics and friction, the harder the pads the more wear on the discs, think of the hard erasers and the soft staedler erasers on pencil lead, the paper wears out after rubbing with the hard ones and there is a lot of rubber shavings when you use the soft one.
if oem had no dust than they will get claims on worn discs, but pads are wear and tear....saying that conman's 545i discs sold to Ricky must have been using hard pads...

i think the enjoyment is thinking abt the temp and the special stopping qualities which make us buy
the aftermarket ones, like getting new wheels......
anyhow its nice to see Mark a newbie with 19inch babes rather than your staid 16....

 

your car looks the biz
it looks like Arnold S next to Capt 16's Danny Devito.......

guys are you all going on the 8th for the official launch of the F10 HK Ex center?
