"Braking is disappointing, too. The 2012 BMW 328i stops from 60 mph in 115 feet, and shows fade by the fourth stop. The A4 stopped in 103 feet, and the last 335i we tested managed 109 feet as did the G25."
It is what it is i think every feet is very important when it comes to emergency. Before in different occasions i end up stopping few inches before i rear ended someone.
People do not realize but your tires and your brakes are one of the most important factors to avoid an accident. Of course besides Human mistakes. |
Tires, tires, tires. Much bigger difference for braking than the size of M rotors vs stock, imo, until we see some actual testing using same tires with only the M rotors and calipers being different.
Do the Msport brakes come with different pads?
To compare the 328i to the 335i we need to know the difference in the tires used on each car.
The A4 uses 245 all around. 328i uses 225 all around, as does the 335i, unless you get the 19's which use 225 up front and 255 rear.
Still, what are the tire differences, meaning what type of tire on each car?
