Both inner and outer pads have a height of 63.8 mm (2.51 inches) and widths of 156.5 mm (6.16 inches) and 155.2 mm (6.11 inches) respectively. The pads are constructed with iron backing plates measuring 5.6 mm (0.22 inches) thick, bonded securely to the semi-metallic friction material. The slotted design enhances heat dissipation, while chamfered edges help reduce brake noise and improve pad bedding. Pad wear sensors and mounting hardware are not included, but pad shims are supplied to ensure proper fit and quieter braking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible BMW Models and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis disc brake pad set is compatible with a range of BMW vehicles, specifically the 330Ci, 330i, 330xi, M3, X3, and Z4 models.
