Brembo 08-13 M3/11-12 1M Front GT BBK 6 Piston Cast 380x34 2pc Rotor Drilled-Silver

This Brembo GT Big Brake Kit is a front brake upgrade for the 2008-2013 BMW M3 and the 2011-2012 BMW 1M. It's designed to significantly improve your car's stopping power and heat management, making it a solid choice for track days or spirited driving where consistent performance is key. The kit centers around a pair of massive 380x34mm two-piece rotors, which offer a larger surface area for braking and better heat dissipation than stock components.

The calipers are Brembo's well-known 6-piston GT series, cast from aluminum for a good balance of strength and weight. These larger calipers house larger brake pads, which means more friction material is in contact with the rotor surface, leading to improved braking force. The two-piece rotor design, with its floating hat, helps to reduce stress on the rotor and caliper assembly during hard braking, minimizing the risk of warping. The rotors themselves are drilled, which helps to vent gases and heat away from the pad surface, further enhancing consistent performance under demanding conditions. This kit comes with everything you need to install the front big brake system, including the calipers, rotors, and necessary hardware.

When installing a big brake kit like this, it's important to ensure you have adequate clearance for the larger calipers and rotors within your wheels. It's also a good idea to consider upgrading your brake fluid to a higher temperature rating to take full advantage of the kit's capabilities. This Brembo kit is a substantial upgrade that will change how your car brakes, offering a more confident and powerful stopping experience.
