M Sport Brakes

Opinions welcome please:

I am about to pull the trigger on a 2014 F30 MSport in Mineral Grey, 6mt etc. I was all set to upgrade to the 19" 403 rims as i like them more. My concern is 403 design (when compared to the standard 18" M Sport Rim) will hide the caliper of the new M Sport Brake.

Am I over thinking this?

Yes you are over thinking. Get the 19' if you like the look better. Just keep in mind that if your roads are less than perfect like where I live, they can be a real PITA.

Here is a link of a car with 403's and red calipers, looks fine to me:

thanks! Does anyone know if our MSport Brakes for 2014 come in a choice of colors? I was assuming they were blue.

no color on msport

I found this photo of the M Sport brakes on the 19s. I think it looks pretty sexy.

For 2013 we had no choice of any colors in the US msport as far as I know. Now you could upgrade and get Mperformance Brakes after you get the car or as a port installed option. Those come with gold, red or yellow calipers and drilled rotors I believe.

It could change for 2014, i don't know. I will leave for someone else to answer.

Those are hot, and it should come for those who get msport with EBii (it would match). Unfortunately it's part of a brake package upgrade

Outside the USA you can get those calipers as an option. In the USA, you can only get the M Performance upgrade, which is dealer installed or port installed, and includes those calipers in blue, red, or yellow, plus bigger, drilled rotors as well.
