After seeing the innovation hardparker did on the X5/X6 brake upgrade I decided to take it to the next level.

I purchased X5M Calipers with brake pads on ebay but then ran into an issue when I purchased after market rotors from brakenetic.

You can read about it here https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1572371

I just purchased OEM F85 Rotors albeit at double the cost of the brakenetic ones, which is why I waited so long to get them. That just be arrived today.

I will detail the install here once I receive the hardware from hardparker. These brakes are massive 395mm monsters. I did not realize how big they where going to be!!! Coincidentally that also happens to be the size of the new X3M/4M Brakes.
