The ones you posted are PnP for the E89.

The F30 ones are also more expensive... and come with Rears as well.

Just fronts guys.

The e9x are p'n'p too of course but if I were you my first choice would be the ones from the f30, the second being the standard 35is/euro 35i brakes which have already larger rotors than the e9x.

Even the fronts of the F30 kit are more expensive than those of the E90 kit. Plus, why not go 6-pot over 4-pot over four, especially when cheaper?

Just curious, if F30 parts fit upfront, how about F80 parts?

The 6 pots crack, check the forums plus they have smaller rotors than standard 35is. If price is the factor don't change anything.

Not really an upgrade from the standard 35is brakes.

You mean the rotors or the calipers? I would go with aftermarket rotors. Didn't realize they are smaller than standard 35is rotors, though. That begs the question of which brake would be better balanced with the rear 35is brake.

Are you referring to the E9x Performance Brake or the F3x Performance Brake or both?

The ones on the 135i which are the same as the e9x. Smaller rotor size than the 35is stock. Are the performance brakes from the F3x plug and play (fronts)?

The f30 ones are plug and play.

The 6 pots calipers crack, not the rotors, rarely but they do.
