Hi guys,
The EUR market (the one that we receive here in Mexico too) has the option to fit M-brakes in the X1 LCI. You can find the parts here:

Here you have an example configuration (in Spanish):

BMW states that the bigger brakes (360x30 rotor + M-calipers) should fit in 18" wheels (first screenshot), but I should go to 19" just to be sure (second screenshot).
I made a quick estimate time ago, and the cost was
too high to make a conversion in my 2017 X1, similar to a WilWood set, which IMO are way better.
So I will fit a set of EBC Brakes (slotted rotors + yellow-stuff pads) and SS brake lines; maybe I will change the brake fluid too (Castrol Ultra or Motul). You can choose drilled rotors instead, but slotted are harder to crack and works great with yellow-stuff pads, which are designed to support higher temperature without fading. That should give me 30-40% better braking, according to reviews and tests.
You can see a full list of EBC kits here (I attached some pictures too):
