Pinnacle Motorsport Backing Plate Kit
Brake cooling issues are a well-known challenge for the BMW F Series platform, especially during high-performance or track driving. The Pinnacle Motorsport Brake Cooling Kit provides a comprehensive solution, engineered to keep brake temperatures down and maintain peak performance.
Laser-Cut Backing Plates
These backing plates are precision laser-cut to guarantee a secure fit, providing efficient heat management to enhance braking consistency.
Customisable Fit for Your Setup
The fitting kit includes spacers, which can be adjusted to suit BMW Carbon Ceramics or aftermarket calipers like AP Racing and Alcon. This versatility makes it easy to customise the installation for your specific braking setup.
New flexible silicone hose
This new flexible hosing replaces the old fibreglass style of hose, that didnt bend particularly well, and was prone to deteriorating pretty quickly under the car. The new silicone hose has a smooth internal profile, as the ribs are on the outside of the hose. Being silicone-based, the hose flexes much easier, meaning you don't end up with jagged bends in your hose, which can restrict airflow. In addition to this, the silicone lasts much longer when exposed to the elements under the car.
Flexible Options for Installation
If you have an alternative method for directing air to the hose, for example, the M2 CS Racing Brake Ducts then this kit is also available without the 3D-printed ducts. This flexibility allows you to adapt the Pinnacle Brake Cooling Kit to your unique requirements.
Proven Benefits of Brake Cooling
Reduced Brake Fade:
By effectively lowering temperatures, this cooling kit significantly reduces brake fade, maintaining consistent performance lap after lap.
Extended Brake Component Life:
Proper cooling minimises heat-related wear and tear, helping extend the lifespan of both rotors and pads.

Keep your braking system cool to maintain maximum stopping power and control, particularly under demanding conditions.
