Detailed Description
The R1 Performance Sport Pads line from R1 Concepts focuses on street-driven braking applications where consistent stopping performance and fitment accuracy matter. This 2115-0493-00 disc brake pad set covers a wide range of classic European platforms, including BMW E30-era front brake applications, Saab 900 and 9000 front brake applications, Mercedes-Benz 190E front brake applications, and rear brake applications for the Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover. If you are searching for brake pads for a 1999-2004 Land Rover Discovery rear or a 1987-1991 BMW 325i front, this part number is listed for those exact positions.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Worn brake pads causing reduced braking performance
- Brake noise from pads that have reached service limit
- Uneven or inconsistent pedal feel during normal driving
- Brake service needs on older BMW, Saab, Mercedes-Benz, and Land Rover platforms
- Front or rear pad replacement by exact vehicle application
Installation Notes
Confirm axle position before ordering, since this pad set is listed for both front and rear applications depending on vehicle. Several BMW front applications require sensor BPS-31002, and 1984-1993 Mercedes-Benz 190E front applications require sensors BPS-63001 (2). Verify rotor condition, caliper hardware condition, and pad shape against the vehicle listing before installation. For fitment searches, use phrases such as 1987-1991 BMW 325i front brake pads, 1988-1993 Saab 900 front brake pads, or 1995-2002 Range Rover rear brake pads.
