F31 diesel have the smallest possible brake size. pretty sure the gassers do too.

Since most of the expense in upgrading brakes is in buying new rotors, which you indicate you are wanting to do anyway, might I suggest instead it’s a great time to upgrade to a set of 340/330 take off from someone with e 335 435 Who upgraded to a mperformance?
I got my set used with good drilled and slotted rotors, good pads etc for about $900 shipped.



I can tell you they really do help a lot as the f31 is undersized on brakes.
