F55/F56 Brake Upgrade
Brake Upgrade
My F56 Base needs brakes, and I'm looking to upgrade them. I don't want to go as far as doing a big brake kit, but more along the lines of rotors and pads. I don't really know what's good and what's not, so I'm looking for some advice. I found this kit on ECS Tuning, but I have no idea if it's any good or not. For context, the car will not be seeing a track ever, but I do autocross it. Thanks!
You can use that kit for the F56 base. Its fine but has the cross drilled/slotted upgrade.
If you dont care for that and want to do solid plain face rotors that will work also. Compound is Ceramic. Good all around for light sport driving. Bite will be better then stock.

4 yr.s ago I bought a 2015 MCS signature that previous owner put JCW brakes All The Way Around. I purchased Ceramic Pads ALL The Way Around & will be installed as soon as I wear out these semi-metallic pads .Face It, if you go if you go Drilled, Slotted, & VENTED Rotors on front, you'll have to go calipers too. the rears are the same, just painted red, unless you get drilled rear rotors. I like that kit after looking at it.
