Are the rear discs on the F30 320i, ventilated?
I would be interested to know.
They were not ventilated on my previous E90 320i, but they are on my current E90 320D.

If you don't order bigger/other brakes, the brakes stay the same, wether you go with 18" alloys or stay with the 16".

Yes, pads are same from 5/12 onwards. Unless u order M-sport brake on a car w/M-sport paket, the brakes won't change even if u order different wheels fitted at the factory.
