Also a good choice is to just put the f90 m5 brakes(much better performance than blue and red) onto your car for about the same price as red brakes.
Yes, those are also might be viable alternatives to the M Performance brakes, although getting 6 or 8 piston front calipers from Brembo would likely results in a much more expensive upgrade than the M performance brakes. I guess I need to dig out the specs for M5 brakes.
