I will shoot you a PM.

Here are some pictures from the 135i Brake upgrade we did on my e30 M3. (I'm the manufacturer of Rongineer13's 5 Lug kit parts).
I had the fronts on the car for 6 months and numerous track days and just completed the rears and the first track event. Huge improvement on stopping force and no fading whatsoever. Obviously this could be duplicated for other e30 M3's but it does not come cheap.
For those still on the fence on the 5 Lug conversions. A few kits have been sold and installed and are working well. Guten Parts and Service is also going to install the kit on their famous 'Black Betty" car and BMW Performance Magazine will do a story on it soon. We are motivated to sell more and have kits that are ready to go, so if you have been sitting on the fence now is the time.

Almost got these installed
Got the caliper brackets and hubs on. Hubs went on very nice, no pressing needed and tightened up as they should. I had to grind the e46 brackets a bit and add some washers to center the bracket on the rotor. I also drilled and time-serted where the original caliper bolts go instead of using nuts and bolts.
Found out today that they have 2 rotor sizes for non M e46 286mm and 300mm
With the 286mm rotor the pad sticks out over the edge of the rotor so Im getting some 300s tomorrow and will try to fit them. Got it all under a set of 15x7" et20 Style 3s
Should have pics tomorrowWe're out there in here.

What is the lowest offset you can run on the front with the standard front kit? Can you run an Et20? Do you sell the rear kit separately? How much for just the rear kit?How to remove, install or convert to pop out windows
