Post Biggest CCB's that fits G82

I know bigger is not always best but what are my options if I want maximum stopping power for a G82?

The CCBs from BMW are designed to fit the 19" wheels of the base G8X so there has to be a way to improve on those.

I was also wondering if getting CCBs for just the front is a good idea or not, seeing as most of the breaking is done through the front axle.

I think this has been covered in a number of other threads but braking power will only increase if you are getting fade from over heating. Every car made in the last 30 or so years has enough stopping power to lock the wheels by design.

Remember you open the front vents for more cooling or get a air pipe.

Do you have irons on your car now? Getting bigger brakes won’t really help other than gaining weight. If you want more bite, change to a more aggressive pad. If you want more stopping power, get better tires.

BMW uses different brake booster for CCB and iron rotors.
