just got mine installed. Don't know yet how to add photos, but I wanted to give a big shout out to Cbozz. Had a little snafu with the paint, he took them back and got them sent back to me quickly. Professional. Had to do my rears anyways, so I was able to 'absorb' the cost somewhat. Did it purely for looks, and what an improvement.

This is probably one of the best upgrades any owner could do for there X5M. I really don't know what the specifications are, but a 4-Piston caliper clamping down on the pads is better than a 1-Piston sliding caliper any day. Are you listening BMW

I've ordered a set off Chris too, super helpful and very easy process! Can't wait to see the calipers in the flesh! Heaps better upgrade than the Tronik option. Those R4S pads from Porterfield are an excellent street compound too. Good choice.

@///M_Martin, I've been thinking about getting a set of the Goodridge brake lines. Can you upload a close-up of those?

Hi there,
Now i fit on the car but this is best zoom photo.
The quality is great-they are leader in performance braided brake lines.

@///M_Martin, Thanks! Another question if you would: the Goodridge kit has 6 lines but are all 6 actually used? Looking at the brake line diagrams on RealOEM, it doesn't look like F15/85's have soft inner lines. Can you confirm?

Hi,
Use only 4 lines (2 short not use and really don't know why Goodridge put in kit)
Some car applications have a handbrake on 2 additional lines BUT here not nessesary.
Fit now and work great!

Seems like the brake pad dont cover the full rotor (which will leave a rust ring)... is this the case?

I feel like the kit is promoted to not have that, so just want some clarity

He is from Bulgaria and ended up not ordering the pad designed for it at first. He will be ordering it soon tho.

Finally got my brakes all done, my man Chris was awesome! This set is a must upgrade. Unfortunately pictures don’t do this kit justice. Turned out amazing.

If you have SPC upper control arms make sure you let Chris know because the bracket needs to be modified.
