Detailed Description

Quality-Built Black Series brake pads are engineered for smooth, predictable braking with low dust and reduced noise characteristics. The application-specific friction formula helps deliver even pedal response and fade-resistant stopping across a broad temperature range. This front brake pad set is a direct-fit option for BMW M2, BMW M5, BMW M6, and BMW M6 Gran Coupe applications listed below, including vehicles with Competition Package or Competition Brakes configurations where specified. Part number 1003-1648AM is built for drivers replacing worn front pads on performance-oriented BMW brake systems.
