Nice
While you are at it are you doing stainless steel brake lines?

no didn`t really think of it, maybe because the lines that are on are good and they are not visible when the tire and wheel is on so it will not add to the looks of the red caliper and the brembo cross drilled rotors

Interested in your opinion on braking power after you install it. I have the exact same setup on my 740il (Brembo x-drilled rotors & Axxis deluxe pads), but won't put it on my X until after the warranty expires.

I can tell you that it's brake dust free. I love that part of it!

Job is done the brembo cross drilled rotors and Axxis delux pads are on and working nice, after they ere installed it was time to hit the free way to bed in the pads, everything when

ok, ok, guys ,,, the answer is YES, yes they do perform better than the OEM, i will post some pic, info, links and more performance comparison.


from this weekend i`ll be going to a few sposts on boston (ma) anyone around there ? drinks ?
