Do these brake pads fit my car (sanity check before I purchase)
Hi, I have a 2017 430d gran coupe f36 with the blue caliper msport brakes, I need new brake pads soon.
I fancy some aftermarket pads and think these are the ones to go for, planning to buy them then have a local garage fit them for me. Before I do it can someone please ensure they are correct? I am pretty new to this and the amount of different parts and caliper sizes and so on is quite confusing! Pads: https://cambridgemotorsport.com/brak...hb765b664.html Thank you in advance! |

Are any specific areas where the current brakes do not perform as expected (other than being worn)?
While there are many brake pads to choose from, these considerations will influence the purchase decision: - Initial aggressive bite (at the cost of more brake dust in most cases) - Rotor wear - Cold temperature performance Other than the brake dust, BMW OEM M Sport brake pads are excellent providing great initial bite while extending rotor life due to a softer compound. |

Please see this link for vehicle fitment from manufacturer: https://www.hawkperformance.com/pads/hb765b-664 It shows fitment that EXCLUDES Blue Painted Calipers that your car has. This is a good read and it applies to your car as well, not just to F30: https://www.turnermotorsport.com/t-b...ke-Differences ON THE CONTRARY TO ABOVE: Further read on this forum (post #31) that confirms that hb765b664 pads will work on your car with 370 mm front brake rotors (with Blue Calipers): https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...1995469&page=2
