Do the m2 brakes fit?
I will buy rotors, calipers and pads.
DomI need to replace heatshield or remove it?

[bryan_G01]

i remember reading they have different bolt patterns, or bolt in a different place. Wont work.

I believe the calipers are the same but the rotor hat/hub has a different offset, IIRC. Was looking into this before as well. Ended up deciding the route to go with would be a 370mm F30 setup w/ m performance rotors. The M2/3/4 rotors are triple the price of OEM m235 rotors, double the price of M Performance rotors, and IMO not worth it unless it came that way from the factory.

What I'd really like to see is some proper 2 piece replacement rotors, to be used with factory calipers. One can dream..

Can you go 370mm rotors with stock calipers?

No, sounds like you need to upgrade to the F8x standard or F30 msport calipers, which I believe are stamped 370. If the M2 brakes are the same as the M235i M Performance BBK, you can reference this thread http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1226936

Unless the 370mm rotors are actually lighter then I would not swap them using the stock caliper.

Upgrade you lines to stainless steel, brake pads to yellow stuffs, and fluid to motul 600 and youll be good to go.

What about Ferodo pads?
On the M235 group on fb some people write negative comments about yellowstuff.
I dont want pads that dust more than oem.

[bryan_G01]

I can only comment on what I've used.

Do you want better stopping power or clean wheels?
Yellowstuffs are fantastic for street use. I wash my car every week, so I live with the dust.

that's why I got gun metal color wheels... that way you don't really know when they are dirty or not

Yellowstuff are basically same as stock dust wise or maybe a little bit worse but I don't buy pads for the looks either....

. Did you upgrade rotors too? Or do you find the stock rotors to be compatible with the upgraded pad? I know, old thread

[bryan_G01]

rotors are widely available...

Stoptech, zimmerman, even bmw oem makes slotted and drilled.
