You have to know essentially BMW went the lazy/quick route and instead of increasing piston size/pad area, which would have necessitated a MC change compared to the rest of the X3/Gxx lineup, it was more cost effective to just upsize the rotor diameter.
That being said, upgrade the pads to a better semi-metallic.
