I say «might be» because, in modelling this situation, one can not get away from the dependence on multiple factors, such as the 5 listed above So if (for example) the natural rates of deceleration after downshifting and in neutral are the same, that doesn't mean it would take the same force of stepping on the brakes in both cases to further change the deceleration by the required amount.

That's some pretty poor rim then... My rims certainly withstand so hard braking on paved roads that the ABS system activates, meaning about 1 g of deceleration force.

The problem is that the degree of engine braking varies as the 5 Series» transmission downshifts through the gears, so even though you're applying steady pressure to the brake pedal, the deceleration is uneven and you tend to come to an abrupt halt.

Especially in autumn and winter, they rarely operate in the desired temperature window, and performance in the rain tends to be poorer than standard brakes, as low initial bite is typically followed by sudden and extreme deceleration.
