Front Brakes Replacement

HockeyGuy89 · 08-30-2012, 08:54 PM

Roughly, what price should I be looking at to get the front brakes/rotors replaced on a 135i?

Are you looking to get OEM or aftermarket?

Sorry, I meant to say at a dealer. Friend works at a BMW center and was gonna get it done for me, so I was wondering a price I should be looking for.

My dealer recently quoted around $800 for brakes for my E91 - don't recall if they were front or rear.

Well, I did my research and bought BMW performance crossed drilled and slotted rotors for the front and rear with Stoptech pads for a little over $1000.00. This set up is far superior in my opinion to OEM. I did all the work myself and they are awesome. I bought rotors from Bavauto and pads from Tirerack. The Nurburgring agrees also.
