â–¶ Vehicle Fitments
The EBC Racing Titanium Shim for the 2007-2013 BMW M3 (E90/E92/E93) with a 4.0L engine is a high-performance brake component designed to enhance thermal management. Crafted from laser-cut titanium, these shims are perforated to significantly reduce conductive heat transfer from the brake pads to the caliper and other critical components. This material choice ensures durability, lightweight performance, and excellent heat dissipation, helping to maintain optimal braking performance during intense driving conditions. The shims serve as an effective heat barrier, protecting sensitive caliper seals from temperatures exceeding 130°C (270°F), which can cause damage and reduce braking efficiency. Reusable and easy to install, these shims are a reliable upgrade for enthusiasts seeking improved heat management and brake system longevity.
Designed specifically for the front brakes of the BMW M3 models within the 2007-2013 range, these titanium shims are compatible with various caliper types and can be used with most brake pad sets. They are intended for high-performance street driving, track days, or spirited driving where heat buildup can compromise brake function. The shims are a direct replacement component, installed between the brake pad and caliper, and are supplied in sets of four or eight depending on the caliper configuration. Their use helps reduce heat transfer to caliper seals and other brake components, ensuring consistent braking performance and extending the lifespan of your brake system under demanding conditions.
