Factory paddles return on a soft plastic spring, and you feel it every time you reach for a gear. The MMX Performance Magnetic Shift Paddles swap that for rare-earth magnets that snap with a crisp, instant click, closer to a competition shifter than a road car.
These are complete billet replacement paddles for G-chassis BMWs with the Gen 3 M Performance steering wheel, supplied with new control units.
How the Magnetic Shift Paddles Work
A magnetic actuation mechanism replaces the OEM spring return, giving every pull a defined tactile break. Combined with blades machined from solid T6061 aluminum, the wobble and low-effort feel of the factory paddle are gone.
