Carid...what the heck

Order a brake for my 2013 bmw f30 RWD, and when i went to Nycwheelprofessional the brake didnt fit well....Carid specifically said this fit well without changing the caliper, goodness Carid sucks. Wasted time and money...never ever i wanted to buy stuff there anymore.

You should probably do more research when purchasing parts, from anywhere. Even dealers mess up.

Yea, a lot of the brake manufacturers have bad data on the msport calipers. Hawk for sure. Sucks. Carid post application information provided by the manufactures so it's not exactly their fault.

The FMSI codes for the 328i MSport calipers are as follows:
Front D1609
Rear D1656

I have EBC reds but they are still dusty. Hawk will soon have their Performance Ceramic pads for then 328i MSport - they are my favorite street pads by a large margin.
