The genuine BMW M carbon-ceramic brake is a technique from racing, especially designed for F80 M3 & F82/F83 M4. Through the use of the high-tech recyclable materials carbon and ceramic, the thermal load capacity also increases in extreme situations such as on the racetrack. The weight reduction of the brake disc has a positive effect on the fuel consumption and the agility of the M vehicle. Its long service life even slows down wear. Depending on the situation, the carbon-ceramic brake offers a further increase in active safety compared to the M compound brake. As an optical distinguishing feature, the calipers are painted in gold.
You will also need to change the brake sensor when retrofitting the BMW M Carbon Ceramic brake kit.
- The sportiness of the vehicle is underlined by the attractive exterior appearance. Especially when fitted with light-alloy wheels with an open wheel design.
- Novel carbon fibre composite ceramic: As a result, the brake discs are much more resistant to wear and a change is much less necessary.
- Even more direct / spontaneous use of braking force under extremely high load due to high and stable friction coefficient.
- Highest heat resistance even with sporty continuous use.
- 60% lighter than conventional brake discs: The reduced unsprung weight reduces the weight of the chassis and improves the road contact of the wheels. Weight reduction of rotating wheel masses by 13.50 kg.
- More accurate metering of braking power and agility when cornering by reducing the mass moment of inertia.
- Even more resistance to decreasing braking effect due to high thermal load (fading) than in the standard built-6-piston fixed caliper brake with also ventilated and perforated Gußbremsscheiben.
- High corrosion resistance of the material and thus an extension of the life of the brake discs.
- The BMW carbon ceramic brake was designed and tested according to internal requirements.
Technical information
- Weight reduction of approx. 13.5 kilograms
- Novel carbon fibre composite ceramic
- The carbon-ceramic brake can only be combined with 19 "M light-alloy wheels (even with winter tires) due to the larger brake discs at the front.
- The retrofit kit corresponds to the SA 2NK (M carbon ceramic brake) and is code-relevant.
- Carbon ceramic brake discs front & rear
- Brake caliper housing front & rear
- Brake pads front & rear
- Brake booster
- Brake protection plates front axle

- M2 Competition Coupe (2018+)
When fitting on the M2 / Competition Coupe, the brake servo (provided in the kit) needs to be changed and software updated. This is also not a BMW recognised retrofit so there will not be any warranty provided when fitting it on a M2/M2 Competition.
