BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

135/BMW Performance brakes for your E36 and E46! This kit uses the factory BMW Performance Brembo 6-piston calipers (same as 135i) with E46 330-sized rotors (325x25mm / 12.8") for a bolt on braking upgrade. Everything comes complete - 6-piston calipers, rotors, custom caliper bracket, brake lines, and a pad sensor. Choose your preferred brake fluid and brake pads below (or call us for a recommendation).

Brake rotor options -

• OEM Pagid Coated - blank rotors with anti-corrosion coating
• Turner/Centric cross-drilled
• Turner/Centric slotted
• Turner/Cetnric cross-drilled & slotted
• BMW Peformance floating and cross-drilled
• ECS 2-piece floating with cross-drilled and slotted

Brake pad options -

• OEM Textar (same as stock 135i)
• Centric Posi-Quiet - nearly dust-free (Turner preferred!)
• Hawk Ceramic nearly dust-free
• Hawk HPS performance
• StopTech performance

This is a direct fit to all E36 and E46 (not E46 M3) and comes with a lot more braking power than standard (especially on non-M E36). Consequently there will be more front brake bias - the front brakes have more bite than before. During normal street driving all you will notice is that the brakes feel stronger. For track driving we recommend a more aggressive rear pad to balance the brake bias or a StopTech or Brembo big brake kit that has been properly engineered for the chassis (not a retrofit).

Requires 17" wheels and wheel spacers may be required depending on wheel spoke design. E46 Style 68 wheels shown are used with 5mm spacer.

When replacing your worn out brakes, the market is flooded with performance options. If your BMW doesn't see track time, it's not very practical. Performance pads and rotors tend to result in a lack of bite at low braking temperatures and cause excessive noise in daily driven vehicles that becomes irritating. BMW brakes from the factory are perfectly suited for trips around town, across the country, and even the occasional spirited driving session, delivering smooth, quiet, and long lasting performance. 

Included in this E46 BMW brake package are all of the OEM equivalent components needed to replace your Front and Rear brakes with comfort, reliability, and optimal lifespan in mind.

Brake components in this kit:

• Textar Front & Rear Brake Pads
• Zimmerman Front & Rear Rotors
• Febi Front & Rear Wear Sensors
• Brand New Stainless Steel Set Screws
• Syl-Glide Silicone Brake Lubricant 

Fits the following BMWs:
1999-2006 E46 BMW 323i Touring, 323Ci Convertible, 325i/Ci 328i/Ci

This brake package for the 2001-2006 BMW E46 M3 ZCP (Competition Package) comes with everything you need to perform a major brake overhaul -

Front and rear rotors with hardware - Genuine BMW replacements
Front and rear brake pads - OEM organic, street performance, mixed track/street, or full race
Front and rear pad wear sensors
Brake fluid - DOT4 street or DOT4 racing fluid

Our brake package uses the same replacement parts from the same manufacturers as BMW dealers use to service your car. The big difference is that we're able to offer these parts for a substantial savings from the dealer markup price. As an independent company we're able to buy our parts from multiple OEM suppliers whereas BMW dealers must buy their parts from BMW. We're able to shop from different vendors which gets you a better price while still maintaining original quality. You don't have to pay high prices at the dealer to get the same quality and performance!

In some cases, we offer performance alternatives to the OEM items. For an enthusiastic BMW owner, the standard BMW part may be inadequate and we offer an upgraded part, based on our almost 20 years of BMW tuning experience. We seek out high quality suppliers and designs that we would want on our own vehicles. Many times performance parts will fix a design flaw with the original BMW part, improving your performance at the same time.

This kit is a direct replacement for the standard floating and cross-drilled 345mm rotors in the ZCP Competition Package. This is brake overhaul for the ZCP and will not work as an upgrade for non-ZCP unless the ZCP front caliper brackets are used. We offer the full E46 M3 ZCP brake upgrade on the website here (click).
