Under heavy braking won't this unbalance the car given you're stock brakes at the rear and better braking at the front with this kit?

ABS wheels sensors will keep the balance between front and rear brakes (source: http://bit.ly/1lIgIie).

Nope, no issues at all even under hard braking on the track. I'm also running ATE Super Blue fluid and hawk pads front/rear on mine.

The e92 performance brakes use the same pads as the 135 which is what I searched when finding the Hawk pads.

Its a shame that there is no upgrade on the Euro Spec 35iS breaks. Hopefully one day BMW will have a kit front and rear us euro 35is owners.

M performance brakes have larger rotors and a different caliper. Seems like it upgrades the 35is brakes as well

I could have sworn the M-sport breaks are smaller than the Euro 35is Front breaks.
