Unfortunately, BMW brakes seem to frail in comparison to Mercedes brakes :/

Hopefully BMW releases better braking systems in the next model (both for the Z and M3)

I never looked into BBKs for the Z4 as it was more of a daily leisure car. I should have probably changed the pads too...

Keep us posted on what pads you use and what works for this car!

If I get another Z4, I'll probably go with Carbotech pads or project mu (don't feel like dropping $800+ on Endless brake pads again..)
