    you are missing the main thing


    E30 E36 and E46 all share the same rear wheel bearings, hence 5 lug rear hubs from an e36 or e46 will fit with the correct axles, no spacer is nessicary

    for the front, you need

    my spacers

    and e36/e46 front hubs


    for the rear (im not sure right now)

    318ti rear hubs and brake discs (that should give a working brake setup in the rear)

    its a set of two

    unless you have 2 e30's

    you need e36 or e46 front hubs
    A set of 2? So 1 for each wheel correct??? 2 in each set?

    What you should do Mr Deagle is put together a laundry list of what we need for us people who are not in the know that way we know what to buy.

    I will buy your "spacers" ASAP if you get me the list

    I also belive early z3 stuff bolts on, and 318ti also bolts on to the rear (for a cheaper alternitive)

    and e36 and e46 rears would work too, but i havent looked into that

    E30 M3 hubs bolt directly to your trailing arms.

    OK, so if I read the translated German correctly, E34 540i saddles and calipers fit the E30M3 using 300mm X 28MM disks. Do you know if the E30M3 sadddles are the same spacing as the standard E30?
    If by the spacing you mean the distance between the bolts that attach carrier to strut, no.

    Suitable adapters fo e30 strut and e35 540i carrier are available from www.300mm.de.

    MB W124 500e brake discs can be mated to e36 or e28 hub with some machining.

    Hey man...sorry I didn't catch that (good catch,xlibelle) I though you were trying to basically bring a 5 lug/BBK system to R3Vmarket.

    What needs to be done about the dust shield?

    seriously, dont waste your time with brakes. get those adapters made and the rest of the needed hardware will follow.

    e30 non m caliper bracket center to center is 3.5 inch

    find a caliper that is bigger and has a 3.5 inch center to center spacing, and you are all set, now you just need hats and rotors
