Rear rotor size

I recently did the rear brakes , just pads as they were badly worn. Thought at 50KM the rotors would be fine. But I’m not happy as there is a slight pedal pulsation
So. Ordering rotors and there seems to be a dozen different sizes
300mm
320mm
385mm
340mm
As soon as I say MSport I think it throws the sales guy off and I’m thinking he is looking at “M” brakes. Thank you
Any help on this would be great
It is a 2018 X5 35d with M sport

If you don't have M-performance brake kit and you did not do any brake retrofits it is just standard 320X20 for rear. Nothing special.
I run these rotors:

Great. I figured but didn’t want them shipped and have to send back. Are you happy with those rotors? I assume they are fully coated

How do you find them after some use? Do the holes get plugged at all

Nothing gets stuck in the holes, no rust, still look brand new.

M Sport brake rotor sizes

For anyone else looking for M Performance brake information, realoem.com has a separate section with related parts.
For this one see https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=03_0119
Hope this helps any future readers.
I have a 2014 x5 xdrive50i with "S337 M Sports Package" which has the 395mm front and 385mm rear rotors. See www.mdecoder.com for your VIN info.
