    What parts can I buy new for a e30 M3 5 lug swap?

    It's proving difficult to find a complete e30 m3 5 lug swap, so I wanted to ask what parts would I need and are still available that I can buy new to do the swap? For the rear, from what I understand, all I'll need is the wheel bearings, dust shield, hand brakes brakes and calipers from the m3. Right? And for the front I'll just need brakes, calipers, and struts.(?) Also does any one know or has seen/heard of anyone buying all of the parts new for an e30 5 lug swap? I know it'll surely be more expensive than finding a full set from a seller. But at the way I'm progressing with my project I'll need this sooner than later. Also I'm not interested in the e36 5 lug method or other hybrid methods.

    Everything is available new except the m3's rear caliper carriers.

        Yeah, but they are available now. They were NLA for a few years, and used pairs were going for $2k plus
