    Group buy is long done. Give Apex a call and check and see if they have another set.

    e30 BBKs : What if ? What if the 300x21mm and 300x32mm BBKs w/ floating rotors could be available with Wilwood's Radial Superlite calipers too? These use the same brake pads as the lug mounted...


    BTW I don't have ONE massive kit but a dozen different e30 kits to suit eveyone's needs

    FRONT
    280x22mm Corrado G60 rotor w/ Dynapro caliper
    280x21mm two-piece rotor w/ Dynapro caliper
    300x21mm two-piece floating rotors w/ Superlite caliper or Dynalite Narrowmount
    300x32mm two-piece floating rotors w/ Superlite caliper or Dynalite Narrowmount
    300x32mm two-piece floating rotors w/radially mounted AP Racing CP8350 caliper
    332x32mm two-piece floating rotors w/ Superlite caliper or Dynalite Narrowmount
    332x32mm two-piece floating rotors w/ radially mounted AP Racing CP8350 caliper - e30 M3
    332/355x32mm two-piece floating rotors w/ radially mounted Wilwood Superlite caliper - e30 M3



    REAR
    300x32mm two-piece floating rotors w/ Superlite caliper or Dynalite Narrowmount
    300x32mm two-piece fixed rotors w/radially mounted AP Racing CP8350 caliper
    310x32mm two-piece fixed rotors w/ Superlite caliper or Dynalite Narrowmount
    300/310mm two-piece fixed rotors w/ Superlite caliper or Dynalite Narrowmount for 318Ti swapped hubs
    332x32mm rear floating rotors w/ radially mounted Superlite calipers for the e30 M3
    I saw this. I'll shoot you a PM.

    Lee is your Massive kit a 4 or 6 pot front piston?

    The 8" wide wheels clear without issue.
    I am running the 2mm spacer that Lee includes in the kit as a precaution.


    ^That's my car :)
    BTW These wheels would accept a 355x32mm rotor. But obviously that would be waaaaaaaayyyyy overkill. ;-) Call me a neo-traditionalist, but I still prefer the original flat face ARC8 wheel. ;-)

    You can fit a floating 300x21 (11.75"x0.81") w/ Superlite. No spacers. Check here for more options.



    Some have fitted the Monster 332x32mm kit

    I went over IE bbk's with them before purchase and you can clear the biggest front and rear BBKs that IE currently sells. I don't know about the Massive kits specifically but maybe this helps you a bit.

    Nice I thought 215s would look a bit stretched on them but those look good, thanks for making my decision easier :)

    What tire size is that? I'm assuming your fenders are rolled, you getting any rubbing?

    Lol. Nah, those pics were snapped just outside the tire shop. They didn't put them in.
