FYI...for those with PFC brakes - I heard that the owner passed away and the family is in the process of shutting things down. You can get parts...at least for now.
I'd verify but I know someone was trying to get the matching rear BBK and it was NLA for an E9X M3.

PFC no longer builds BBKs, but continues to support them. I am yet to have an issue buying spares, pads, rotors, etc from BimmerWorld |

Still curious why Essex specs the 34mm vs. the 36mm if the setup accommodates both. Aside from the small weight increase, why would they opt for the smaller one?

I sent Jeff a note to inquire about the other sizes and whether they fit the Essex hat. Obviously I'd order from them anyhow, so hope it's not a point of contention.
There's speculation the PCD is 240mm for Essex, thus the better rotor ring is the 378mm x 36mm options which are also 240mm vs what I referenced previously (375mm x 36mm) which was 241mm. I think it's weight (several pounds per rotor), and having a custom spec that locks you into their package?

Hoping that the lettering is in black instead of red.

From our discussion in Discord, my friend has an M2 with AP racing 372x34mm and replaced his rotors with non-AP Racing rotor rings with PCD 240mm. The weight difference between 378x36 vs 372x34 is about 1.5lbs per side. edit:

Despite all the gloom and doom I've heard on forums about PFC for almost a decade, when I need pads/rotors/rebuilds/etc I call BW and they have whatever I need |

You must have spoken to the new guy or something. Call and ask for John or Patrick, they should square you up
