I always assumed they were the same brakes from the M3 (floating calipers). They work well, but I miss the initial bite of the 135i brakes. I feel like the 135i brakes are much stronger than the M3's (though it could just be a feeling). I was way more confident with the 6 piston calipers. This is based on everyday driving, not tracking the cars.
