[QUOTE="E46Fanatic, post: 97483, member: 81"] It really depends what you use your car for. Reputable aftermarket performance brakes typically cater more for track usage, where the brakes need time to warm up to get to its optimum temperature, but offers much better bite at very high temps for track use. Stock brakes will see more fade on the track but have much better initial bite when cold. Personally I think that the stock BMW brakes are great for daily street driving. I have experimented a lot on brakes on previous cars, and found that BMW really emphasize on their braking systems on their cars. For the bucks i think its best value for $$$. Also note in the owners manual, that BMW warns against putting on aftermarket brakes, probably due to their DSC, ASC settings.... [/QUOTE]
