BMW Brakes & Brake Parts for BMW 5 Series E60 (2004-2010)

The stock M5 brakes provide a powerful upgrade over the stock brakes on non-M E60 models - 525i, 528i, 530i, 535i, 545i, and 550i. This kit uses the factory E60 M5 front 2-piston calipers with M5 rotors for a bolt on braking upgrade. Everything comes complete - 2-piston calipers, rotors, caliper bracket, stainless brake lines, and a pad sensor. Each rotor option is similar to the factory 2-piece floating and drilled rotors. Choose your preferred brake rotors, brake pads, and brake fluid from the options below (or call us for a recommendation).

Brake rotor options -

• Zimmermann Coated
• Genuine BMW
• Centric/StopTech Coated
• ECS 2-piece Floating Drilled + Slotted

Brake pad options -

• Centric Posi-Quiet street (nearly dust-free!)
• OEM Pagid or Textar street
• Cool Carbon performance
• Hawk HPS performance
• Hawk Ceramic street (nearly dust-free!)
• StopTech performance

This is a direct fit to all non-M E60 RWD models and comes with a lot more braking power than standard. 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 18" wheels and wheel spacers may be required depending on wheel spoke design.

Ceramic Brake pads have advanced a great amount and show drastic advantages over traditional metallic and semi-metallic brake pads. Akebono in particular has been producing brake pads for major brands for years and their Euro brake pads have seen use in over 90 models of vehicles as the OE brake pads, ensuring high, consistent quality.

Thanks to Akebono’s pad formulation, you can enjoy many benefits including:

• Reduced Heat Absorption
• Reduced Brake Fade
• Reduced Stopping Distances
• Significantly Less Brake Dust
• Increased Brake Rotor Life

The RSL29 pad is an endurance racing compound with long life and great wear characteristics. It has stable friction over a broad temperature range which makes them a very easy to use and predictable braking pad in a lot of environments. An evolution of the RSL19 endurance pad designed for more advanced drivers. This compound combines the outstanding wear rate of the RSL19 with a slightly higher coefficient of friction and initial bite. RSL29 also features improved hot fade resistance over the RSL19. In addition to the endurance racing, this pad will also be found in GT and VLN classes and Touring Cars (including our own E46 World Challenge cars). BMW has been using Pagid Yellow pads on their Nurburgring test vehicles and Ring Taxi for years.

This is the set of FRONT pads.

RSL19 A favorite of BMW's Motorsport engineers, the Pagid RSL19 compound is an endurance pad based on the RS14 Black but with less friction to improve modulation and low pedal effort. These pads work best in a heat range up to 1,100* F. The combination of friction levels, fade stability, and long life for pads and rotors makes this a favorite for club and HPDE drivers.
