Has anyone confirmed if larger calipers come with this package? Looking at pictures they do look slightly larger than the standard msport brakes.

Seems like it may be the case with the M340 based on the last post here:

I was not going to add the package just for the wheels, but if it adds on in larger brakes too I may be go for it

Same as M340. F 374x36mm & R 345x24. Highly recommend everyone to get this package.

Is the caliper upgrade documented anywhere? It's odd that they don't mention this with the package, when it's a selling point.

It's still a 4 piston caliper but larger to accommodate the larger rotor.

USA seems to be different than other countries in terms of what is standard on the M240i versus other packages in other countries

[MPR]

Can someone with a US spec with and without the package take a close up picture of your front caliper?

[TheJerseyDon]

Looking at various US based pictures they all appear to run the larger calipers regardless of cooling pack.(would great to confirm) I would still recommend the cooling pack if you will do any track time at all. Plus you get the PS4s that's worth $1,200 right there.

[MPR]

I don't track, but I do love the wheels, and calipers would definitely seal the deal. And now that you mention the tires, that's an added bonus. Would like if someone can confirm so I can get this added

Iirc my CA said you get larger brakes, wider tires, and of course the amazing 893s

[beamer-dreamer]

i would have done this package.. but in doing so, i'd need another set of wheels and winter tires.. if they have given the option for all seasons with this package.. it would have been tempting

[MPR]

Good to keep in mind as I'm in the northeast US, I'll definitely switch to all seasons at some point. I asked my CA about the calipers

Got another car to deal with the winter To be far you can source winters on the "cheap" if you look around.

[MPR]

Ill have my BRZ with A/S 3+'s that I can use, until I swap for all seasons on the BMW

[TheJerseyDon]

I run the Michelin all season 4 on my A3 and boy they suck in light snow. Had to get real winter tires. So not sure if the all season will be good enough for you. Be it FWD vs AWD so your experience may vary.

[MPR]

I think I can get by. I've been on all seasons for 2 NJ winters on a light RWD car with no issues.

I agree, the 893's are great wheels. I just can't get past the extra arches over the wheels that come with the cooling and tire package. I know BMW has to do this for US spec laws, but it looks like they glued on wheel arches.

Extra arch trim pieces:



This looks much cleaner IMO:

[MPR]

Yeah, I don't like the arches either, if I get this package I may look into removing them assuming they are only glued on. Love the wheels and brakes tho

[OriginalFake]

The arches don't bother me at all but I'm surprised that no one has tried to remove them. Or at least no one has posted about it that I've seen.

same, I actually didn't even notice them lol, had no idea they were there until it was just pointed out to me

[Brett_C_F30_G42]

I didn't get the cooling package on my M240 spec but I'll definitely upgrade in the future to M Performance brakes or aftermarket ones.

[RC84]

I'm getting ready to place my order and would like some confirmation regarding this package.

19" 893 wheels
wider/performance ps4 tires (increased speed limiter)
wheel arch trim
larger brake rotors....or are calipers upgraded as well?
extra oil cooler

Can someone confirm this? If everything above is included...$2400 seems to be a decent deal.

[MPR]

All of the above is confirmed except for calipers, I believe.
