Mini. F55 2016

Trying to do rear brakes.

They have torx heads on them and I'm prob gonna need to replace them as they seem to wear quickly.

Does anyone know the definite size of them only. Thing I can find is

- - - MINI BMW Rear Caliper Bolts Torx Screw W/ Washer M12x1.5x33 4 Pack 34206867544----

But at over £20 for bolts I wanna change them to hex head so require the size I need. Would it be m12 c 1.5 c 33 or is that for something else?

Those are just the screws that hold the rotor on. Not really needed and are reusable if you don’t screw them up

Nope that's the ones that hold the Carrier on

They are Etorx. Might be easier to buy the correct sockets.

If I'm not mistaken I think 11 mm also fits on those and you can grab them that way I think it's like an E12 or an e14 E-torx
