Looking to get BBK kit

Hi guys im looking to get a BBK for the M3, im a bit confused on the diffrent pricing, i was looking on the bimmerworld website and what seems to confuse me is what i am looking on this attached image, the items look to have almost the same description, they have a sale on the stoptech trophy which should be $4k but now is $2.7k. The non trophy kits are $3.5k each front or rear. What am i missing, why is the trophy cheaper for the whole kit compared to the other two kits which are more money for just fronts or rears.

Be mindful of the # of pistons and rotor size. Some of the fronts are 4 piston 355mm rotors, while others are 6 piston and 380mm rotors

Thanks for the info, they really need to clarify this stuff before ppl order and have to do returns and waste money on shipping on both sides.

I believe I actually bought the last pair of those discounted ST40R TROPHY kit that Bimmerworld has listed. Might want to call and double check.
But I am selling my PFC racing kit front and rear with brand new Rotors and brand new pads. …along with pads that have 1 day on them at a great deal. My used set of rotors front and rear are included with the sale that can also be used or sold. Message me if interested.

I just ordered the Alcon 6pot kit from Paragon.
Pricing seems fairly good on it. I’m installing next week will provide further feedback.

StopTech has had major supply chain issues and don’t have all rotors in stock. They also stopped manufacturing the large annulus rotors which were used on the f8x. You may need to source rotors from Girodisc, Paragon and Coleman Racing (make custom rotors with excellent pricing).
