Any chip, slight ding to the CCB discs will require them to be replaced.
BMW has actually a special tool for wheel installation for CCB equipped cars so the
wheel is put on perfectly straight and centered.

it's a very hard disc. Have had CCB's on both my porsche (GT3) and 2 Ferrari's (Challenge Stradale and F430) with many tire changes with no issues. It's really no concern.
Most carbon ceramic brakes only take 1 or 2 stops to warm up in the morning. It's not as bad as everybody think it is. No brake dust and very repeatable stopping distance is great. They do wear out though. I just went through the brakes on my F430 and the replacement is expensive but that's after 10+ track days.
to the OP great choice. Too bad it wasn't available when I ordered my F10.
