Msports Blue callipers for F36

Can I fit Blue M performance callipers + new pads to my 2019 440i F36 and not replace the existing (370mm front & 345mm rear) rotors.
8k on the clock since new, so limited wear on existing rotors.

If you already have 370mm fronts and 345mm rears, you already have the M performance brakes. Unless you have the yellow/orange/red caliper and looking to swap to the blue ones. If this is the case, then yes, possible.

I think your rotors are 340mm fronts and 345mm rears so your calipers will be blue and stamped 340 for the fronts. In that case, you will need new rotors and the 370/380 calipers. The pads I believe are interchangeable for the 340 and 370/380 calipers.

Measure your rotors or check what is stamped on the back of your caliper or realoem should tell you exactly what you have.

440i F36 M Sport Blue Calipers

Thanks for the feedback.
Just to clarify I want to swap out the existing grey calliper to Blue M Sports calliper + new pads and not replace the rotors.
I have checked the rotor size and do apologise as I got it wrong when using the RealOEM.com catalogue for my Vin number as there are four different configurations which are compatible with my vehicle.
It appears my current rotors are 340 / 330 and not 370 / 340.
Sorry about the confusion I may have caused but your comments did help with my research & possible options to do a retro upgrade.
Thanks again.

Happy to help!

You can get away with just replacing the calipers on the fronts as long as you get the blue calipers that are stamped 340. Pads can be reused from your Grey calipers if you have a good amount of life left

For the rears, it'll have to be a full upgrade. Rotors, calipers and pads.
