Thanks guys!
Okay details...for the last 12 months or so I've been designing and having machined an adapter for the front spindle to fit an E36 M3 front hub, and also caliper brackets to run E46 M3 calipers and rotors, for the front and rear. Everything consists of my proprietary hub adaptors, caliper brackets, and parking brake adaptors (those are in the works).
Once I had everything machined and all calipers, rotors, and so on, I had the complete kit installed in about 8 hours. Drove the car into work with 4 lug on Euro weaves, and drove home with 5 lug on 17"s! Now the car stops on a dime!

I'd like to know how you mounted the rear calipers to the trailing arm.Leave a comment:

New member and my 5 lug conversion
Hey everyone, I'm new here and just thought I would share my new 5 lug conversion with everybody!
I've got E46 M3 brakes front and rear, the original 4 lug strut housings with 5 lug front hubs and E30 M3 rear hubs, and 17"x8" Elbrus IO8 wheels running 225/45 17s all around.
Please enjoy!
