It fits many vehicles, among them the 2006-2008 BMW Z4, 1997-2001 BMW 740I and 2001-2006 BMW M3; see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
This rear disc brake pad set belongs to DFC's 5000 Advanced line. Its friction formulations are selected from original equipment manufacturer formulations and formulated for each axle on every vehicle the line covers.
Whether you are shopping for a BMW Z4 brake pad set or rear pads for a 740I or M3, keep in mind that pads wear with use. Squealing or grinding, a less responsive pedal, or friction material that looks thin on inspection are signs the pads may need replacing. For even, balanced braking, replace the pads on both sides of the axle together, and inspect the rotors at the same time.
