Heat dissipation could improve as I currently do not have a drivers air duct

Cosmetics, they just look good. Plus I need to do a fluid flush anyways. My buddy will be buying my old brakes off me for his 325 build
Tires and suspension would better money spent vs 335i brakes unless you already have addressed those areas. I have 335i front brakes that can send you. Pay shipping and something for my troubles. That is if you are set on 335i brakes. Or get F series 340mm front brakes.....
The brakes don't stop the car, the tires do. Without good tires no reason to upgrade the brakes. All they do is convert kinetic energy to heat.

On that note, F30 brakes would be a much better upgrade.
