These pads were originally equipped on the Euro E46 M3 models and the US M3 ZCP, as well as Euro-spec M models from the 1990s. Owners of the E46 M3 will know that the stock pads are already quite 'aggressive' from the factory with a lot of initial bite. The initial bite was built into the pad to stop criticism of BMW's lack of 'performance' brakes. Instead of building the M models with exotic - and expensive - multi-piston calipers, BMW engineers turned up the braking power in their pads. These pads go a step further as the pads that originally came on the Euro E46 M3 and all E46 M3 ZCPs. For the street, these are excellent brake pads with excellent feel and performance. The only downside is the dust that comes from an organic pad. The problem with many aftermarket and OEM pads is that they do not match the same level of initial bite as the stock OE BMW pads. This can make the brakes feel 'weak' and 'numb' even though the pads are working properly. If you want to maintain your braking feel, these are the best to use.

Although these pads were originally designed for M cars, they fit other models as well, making them a great first-step upgrade for better braking.

Price is for one set of pads - enough to replace the pads on both front calipers.

These front pads fit the following BMWs:
1988-1994 E32 BMW 735i 735il 740i 740il 750il (more aggressive fitment)
1989-1995 E34 BMW 525i 530i 535i 540i M5 (more aggressive fitment)
1994-1998 E36 BMW M3 (more aggressive fitment than US-spec)
1998-2002 Z3 BMW M Roadster M Coupe (more aggressive fitment)
1999-2005 E46 BMW 330i 330ci 330xi M3 (more aggressive fitment for 330)
2003-2008 E85 E86 BMW Z4 3.0si Z4 M Roadster M Coupe (more aggressive fitment for 3.0si)

These front brake rotor set are from CSL/ZCP E46 M3. They are vented 345x28 rotors, veined directionally for optimal cooling. OEM BMW 2-piece construction makes these rotors lighter than stock and with improved expansion and contraction to prevent rotor warp at high temps.

These rotors are cross-drilled allowing for faster heat dissipation and reduced brake fade on the track.
