Compared to the E30 M3, the E36 M3 rotor is only 3mm thicker (28mm/1.1"), . E46 M3 is the same thickness as E36 M3. There is almost 800lbs difference there from E30 to E46.
But back to face thickness... those OE rotors, while wider than what we spec for the BBK, have very little wear depth... just 1.6mm total. That's 0.8mm per side. "Slightly used" is "almost worn out" for a standard BMW rotor.
Our BBK rotors have at least double that amount of wear depth, and the extra-thick material is a superior heat sink.
