Best G30 M sport break upgrade

Hi, looking for upgrade to my brakes, have M sport and wondering if I should go with M performance, put in F90 M5 brakes (how are they different and will they fit?), or other brands?
Thanks a lot for any experience and suggestions!

I think it depends why you are upgrading and what exactly needs to be upgraded. You can do simple things like swap out steel braided brake lines, change brake fluid, use more aggressive pads, change out rotors. Depending on model year, you can increase the rear rotor size and all you need is the caliper carrier.

You can replace everything for M performance parts and still upgrade those parts the same as above.

You can go completely aftermarket and have beefier rear calipers vs single piston.

I'm pretty sure all OEM BMW brake calipers and rotors will fit as long as you have the proper caliper carriers. Depending on what your wheel specs are, you might need bigger wheels.
