I'm running those pads, those rotors and a different set of SS brake lines along with some DOT 3/4 fluid and it made a HUGE difference. No more overheating in the brakes. Braking feel will be different, but will hold up better under heat (from what I've seen).

I read a post on here once about the BMW Z4is rotors (lighter weight and OEM) not 100% sure on the price

I'll look into it... They work with the stock E92 335i Caliper?

from the reading that I did yes that is one of the great things about them, they are OEM and work w/ the E9X platform.

I would go with drilled... not slotted....

Read my thread.

Last page (only 2 of them) I get a hum when really hot braking. It is from slotted rotors. Search the forum.

No issue, I just don't like the hum. They work great though.

The CC pads are very consistent and friction level actually increases when driven aggressively plus are very easy to modulate, very predictable and rotor friendly. If anyone is interested in Stoptech rotors we can offer those as well in addition to our brake upgrade kits. PM for details.

Why are you buying two bottles of ATE brake fluid? It only takes one litre to flush all four calipers plus you'll have some extra for refills. The second bottle will just sit around until your next flush.

I have many times thought about the brake setup I would use to upgrade when the time comes and this is the recommended list I came up with. After tirelessly comparing each product on every website, I decided on Tirerack.com of all places. They actually offer a great selection of brake parts and I would encourage everyone to plug in their car info on the site and take a look at all the options. My selection of parts include:

Stoptech Sportstop drilled rotors
Centric Posi Quiet ceramic pads
ATE type 200 amber brake fluid
Goodridge G-stop stainless line kit

Total cost: $639 before tax and shipping

This setup should provide an affordable improvement over stock brake setup. Let me know what you guys think.
