I dont like them at all, braking from lets say 200 km/h feels like I have to pray sometimes to stop in time.
I live in Holland and I am near the Autobahn in Germany so I go there sometime. Just saying in case of people thinking I am some kind of speed criminal.

I am looking at the M performance brakes, I had them before and they are quite good, not too expensive either.

Anyone any experience with changing brakes?
From what you are saying, your problem is not the brakes. A brake upgrade makes sense if you are doing repeated all-out braking, like on a track. In that scenario it makes sense to upgrade, more because of brake fade and overheating.

You are refering to the stopping distance when you do heavy braking. That has more to do with the quality and contact patch of the tires, and the quality of the suspension.
