Installation Notes

Confirm rear axle fitment before ordering, since this pad set is vehicle-specific. Mounting hardware is not included. The pads are prepared for an electronic wear sensor, but the sensor itself is not included; several listed BMW applications require a separate sensor, so verify the correct sensor part number for your model before installation. Inspect rotors, calipers, and pad guides during service to help ensure even pad wear and proper brake operation.
