R50 / R53 / R56 / F56 · All Models · Lebanon
The MINI front brake kit covers the most critical braking axle — the front — which handles the majority of stopping force under heavy braking. A complete front kit from us includes the two front calipers, both ventilated rotors, new or near-new brake pads, and the wear sensor wires so you have everything needed for a full front axle rebuild.
MINI brakes across the R50 to F56 range use a single-piston sliding caliper on the front axle for most models, with 4-pot fixed calipers standard on JCW variants. When ordering, confirm whether your car has standard or JCW brakes — the caliper and rotor dimensions differ significantly.
Each caliper is inspected for piston seize and corrosion on the sliding pins. Rotors are measured for minimum thickness and checked for scoring. We do not sell rotors below minimum thickness or calipers with seized pistons.
