BMW Brake Rotors & Discs for BMW 3 Series E46 (1999-2005)

Clear BMW chassis

Please ensure your correct model is selected

Similarly to brake pads, the brake rotors can be matched to specific driving conditions and intended use. For solely street use the design and characteristics particular to each rotor are not big factors in overall braking performance. For instance, a cross-drilled rotor will not significantly improve braking under street conditions. Improved stopping performance will come mostly from your brake pads. Some rotor designs perform better under racing conditions with racing pads but, generally, all rotor types can be used on the street. For race track use we typically recommend a slotted or blank stock rotor. Any 2-piece floating rotor is superior to anything else and those are our first recommendation when available. For more information on the brake rotors we sell, check out our rotor buying guide.

All of these rotors are manufactured to meet BMW's specs for each vehicle application. Our standard rotors are sourced from original manufacturers for BMW (OEM), performance alternatives, or straight from BMW themselves. In some cases BMW Motorsport and BMW Performance will have their own rotor upgrades. Our Cross-Drilled, Slotted, and Drilled+Slotted rotors are manufacturered by StopTech - a global leader in braking technology and the braking technical partner to the Turner Motorsport racing team.

E46 M3 Front Brake rotors/discs (Left and Right Pair) with anti-corrosion coating. This pair of rotors includes both left and right discs, replacing BMW part numbers 34112229529 and 34112229530. These are the standard US-spec rotors, as originally fitted to the 2001-2006 US market M3 (Euro rotors were 2-piece and cross-drilled). These are sold as a pair and the price includes one left front brake disc (commonly listed as BMW part # 34-11-2-229-529 / 34112229529) and one right front brake disc (commonly listed as BMW part # 34-11-2-229-530 (34112229530).

What sets these rotors apart from OE BMW or OEM parts is the corrosion-resistant coating that is applied to the rotor-hat and inner vanes. This super-durable coating prevents rust, ruining the appearance of your car. Aftermarket brake discs do not usually have any coating on them, exposing them to rust and corrosion as soon as they are put on the car. These premium rotors, manufactured by Meyle, are the equal or better than any OEM or even OE BMW part but at a much more attractive price!

This item fits the following BMWs:
2001-2006 E46 BMW M3, M3 Convertible - except ZCP/CSL package

Restore your braking performance with these brand new rotors from SHW Performance! As brake rotors wear down, you may notice grinding from uneven or excessive wear, pulsations from warping, and squeaking/squealing noises from rotor glazing. This can negatively affect your BMW's braking smoothness, performance, and safety. Luckily, replacing brake rotors is a very easy task, and these SHW Performance rotors are the best replacement option, offering the same great design from BMW without the Genuine BMW price. SHW Performance is the OE provider of brake rotors for multiple European auto manufacturers, including BMW, and is well-known for their exceptionally high quality, both in terms of design and materials. All SHW rotors meet or exceed Genuine BMW standards and are likely the same rotors that were installed by BMW at the factory, just without the BMW logos and price markup. Brake rotors should always be replaced in pairs to ensure even wear and braking consistency. New brake rotors should always be paired with new brake pads and hardware as well to prevent uneven wear and premature glazing or warping.
