Thanks for this. The braking force/feel on the M850 is weird to begin with b/c its by wire, so maybe it won't be such an issue. Some questions: Did you get any squealing or rotor issues (warping/vibrations etc)with the new pads, and do both front and rears need to be done (my fronts get far dirtier than the rears). Does installing aftermarket pads affect the warranty of the rotors, and what brand did you use?
Had to look it up on the M6 forum. Carbotech. You can read the post if you search my name and M6.
