I have the factory BBK and it uses the same pads as the m235; didn't look to see if that is the same size as the m4. I'd call zeckhausen racing for brake info - they'll know if they interchange, and will be able to give you some advice on whether this is a good swap for your uses (good street pads can be lousy in performance applications, and vice versa). Lots of crossover pads that work well across both settings if you can live with noise and dust, more limited options if you can't.

M Brake Pads / Front
Standard: 34112284969
Sport: 34112284765

M Brake Pads / Rear
Standard 34212284989
I think the rear sport pads are the same as standard M pads.

They fit the M-Perf BBK just fine.

I've had the standard M pads on my M-Perf BBK and steel brake lines for almost 2 years and I run them in winter. I think they are fine and I think they have better initial bite, perhaps a bit better overall, but I also think that some of it is due to the steel brake lines and I also think maybe I should have stayed with the original pads. I swapped when I already had the steel lines.

I don't track that car but I do occasionally drive aggressively for long runs... 250-300 km highway going 200-240 km/hr or so which, of course, includes some hard braking and stops... and over time I noticed some vibration when braking medium to hard... and I think it may be due to the more aggressive M pad than what's supposed to be coupled with the brake kit and, therefore, some uneven wear and deposit on the rotors. It's not horrible but I do notice some vibration.

Occasional noise when cold but not bad at all. Lots of dust, just like the original pads.

Perfect thank you I have fitted m4 pads bmw had no stock of the sports but does anyone know if the m4 discs will fit our hubs? The mperformance calipers are the same ones on the m4 and the discs are the same size at 15"?

The discs will not fit, the caliper is the same, but the knuckle is different, the M performance brake kit disc is 370mm, I believe the M4 is 380mm.

The pads are the same though as the calipers themselves are the same. So you can freely run M4 pads either OEM or aftermarket.

The M sport calipers use the same pad shape OEM may have different part numbers and slightly different compounds.

PM, email or call us if you have any questions.
