Brake Related Hardware
I'm installing the new brake related items below.
- Rotors (StopTech Sport Slotted Cyro-Treated) - Pads (Akebono Euro Ceramic) - Lines (Goodridge G-Stop) - Sensors (OEM) Is it advised to also install new hardware below? I found pad and rotor installation kits from ECS that use OE or OEM parts, but I want some opinions if it's needed, or more likely a waste. - Anti-rattle clip - Sensor clip - Guide bushing set - Caliper guide bolt - Brake rotor set screw - Collar screw - Protection plates (I'm currently at 55K miles) |

I replace:
- Anti-rattle clip - Sensor clip - Guide bushing set - Caliper guide bolt - Sensor In addition to the rotors/pads every time I do a brake job... You'll like the Akebono pads - you won't notice any difference with the SS lines on the street

I have had multiple BMWs with well over 100,000 miles with nothing, I repeat, NOTHING but pads and rotors (and the occasional sensor if I let the pad wear far enough to trigger the light on the dash). Heck I had an e30 318is that had 300,000 miles still using the factory original guide pin, factory original anti rattling clip, and factory original guide bushing along with the original rotor set screw and caliper dust boot (dust boot replaced at around 15 years old, 240,000 miles when I had the caliper rebuilt) the day I sold it.
I think, while you're in there doing the brakes, you should replace the whole car if you think you'll need more than just rotors, pads, and sensors at 55,000 miles j/k.
