5 Lug and BBK Round 4

[88 ragtop]

Hello
So I have a question that I need your help on, It has been a few years now since I bought a big brake kit from you and I am finally getting around to installing it. I was doing some research to obtain the rest of the parts needed to install it and I read somewhere that some people are using the Z4 rear hubs instead of the E30 M3 hubs to cut down on costs and I too want to go this route.

From what I read, folks needed to specify when they ordered them from you (on some orders/runs) if they wanted an additional 2 MM milled out of them if they were to run the Z4 hubs. At the time I was not aware or this so I 'am thinking that I did not specify this when I ordered (I cant remember), however no problem here, I just need to know what is the thickness of the rear caliper brackets supposed to be if I'm going to be utilizing Z4 hubs so I can check mine to know whether or not I need to have them milled down 2 MM. Please email me back. Thanks, Geoff.

Would this work from someone coming from a rear drum setup looking at disc brakes and 5 lug?

Im interested in this kit. Has anyone used it during driving events or racing? How robust is it? Any areas for concern?

I have done years of HDPE or Track Nights in America with mine. No issue other than I tend to out brake the little 1.8L in my 318is and scrub off too much speed.

A few have been autocrossing for years with S52 or S54 swaps, they have not reported any issues to me.

Great news! Kits are back in stock. Some are already paid for, but a few are still available. If anyone from this thread reaches out I will honor pricing and ship immediately.

Does this kit affect track width? If so how much? What is the minimum wheel size for the m3 and 540i calipers? Does your price include international shipping?

A lot of questions lol

Very good to know the design has passed TUV testing

The front moves out 12mm, the rear stays the same with E30M3 parts. (Rear moves in 2mm if using Z4 design). I recommend 17's, but some 16's have been proven to fit with E36M3 front brakes. Price does not include international shipping, but PM and I can get you a quote.
