What brakes to buy? e92 2009

Hey guys. I just posted about tires, I know. However, I'm looking and my rotors have that little lip on the outside and I think it's time to replace them as well. I figured I might as well upgrade a bit, as well as doing the calipers and pads while I'm at it. I'm not looking to break the bank, what are some good budget pads, rotors, and calipers I could buy? I'm looking for a fixed caliper if possible and keeping the same offset on the rotors. I know that on the rear brakes the parking brake is integrated into the calipers and that could cause some issues. If anyone has advice I'd love to hear it. This is my first bimmer and I don't know a whole lot to be honest.

Thanks!!

What tires to buy? e92.

Hey guys, first time posting here.

I'm new to tires, and I don't really know much about them at all. I bought a 2009 e92 328i, and it has some aftermarket wheels and coils. Currently the tires on it are 265/30/r19 on the rear and 235/35/r19 on the front. The tires are all mismatched, and I want to take it driving fast on mountain roads as well as daily driving as it is my only car. Which tires should I buy? My main priorities are price and performance, I don't really care about lifespan that much. I also live in Arizona if that changes things. I'm thinking I want to put the same size tires on the front but change the rears to 265/35/r19.

Currently I was looking at the federal 595 rs-rr, but I can't tell if they are still being produced. Also, the firestone indy 500 but concerned for the same reason. Can anyone let me know of a tire that is less than about $200 per tire and performs well? Not looking for winter performance or wet performance.

Thanks!!
