So far ~400km the wear on the disc is even - on top side of the disc the lip/wear continues from the same spot that the original e92 m3 pads touched so ~1mm from top. On bottom side where the pad was cut they go over the disc little bit so no lip there anymore. With new pads i can use them as template to get correct size pads. I used G11 7 series 2017 non m brakes. (not painted calipers) 34116891275 34116891276 The M brakes on 7 series are bigger (the two cylinders on front of the caliper have some room). This video is very informative but misses the non painted calipers, exactly the same but not painted. |

Anyone using the CCB-Calipers of a Alfa on a E92 M3?
Didn't know there was a difference between the calipers used on the Steel vs. CCB version of that car. Steel LEFT | CCB RIGHT Currently have the FreakyParts calipers on-route, so i'm trying the CCB ones. But if that isn't possible with 18" wheels, i'm switching to Steel calipers. |

CCB calipers tend to be larger (deeper/thicker) to accommodate a pad with a longer radial depth and wider to accommodate the thicker CCB brake rotors. Do you know if there’s a pad available that matches the radial depth of the rotor surface being used and appropriate pad shape and thickness? CCBs tend to have much longer radial depths to help radiate heat. Do you know the piston sizes and have you calculated the piston areas/brake bias of stock vs Guilia calipers? |

What i meant was: Using a Alfa caliper, that's used on a Guilia with CCB brakes. There are some clear differences between the Alfa calipers. I bought a set, and found out they we're for the CCB-brake system. Want to pair them with 360mm disks (OEM) because of my 18" E88's. But i don't think they're going to work. Sourcing a different set isn't that hard over here (Europe). So i think i'm going that route. |

I believe the Essex/AP Racing radi-cal 5000R 372 mm F and 365 mm R rotors fit in E88’s. Good luck with your retrofit! |

I found some local calipers that came off a 2018 X3 that have the exact same numbers on the back of the caliper as the unpainted 740i calipers. I was wondering if you knew if they were the same caliper? The blue painted set is from the 2018 X3 And the unpainted set is from 2018 740i Thank you in advance. |

Best brake retrofit are 2NH calipers (they have titanium pistons) with CCB or Steel discs.
CCB for 19wheels Steel discs 400mm for 19 and 380x36 for 18's. |

Seems to be same ones yes. Just make sure that the pot circles at the front dont have any space in front of them. If there is some space they are larger and wont fit stock discs. Also the non painted ones might have some oxidation and might be hard to get pins out. I had to split open one of the calipers to get one stubborn pin out. Painted ones are probably easier to remove. |
