I'm getting my 1987 325is back up and running after sitting for a few years in the south.
Turns out the brakes are rusted together. Mechanic friend suggests getting all new calipers, rotors and pads.
I checked and have ATE on the front calipers.
There seems to be a a lot of options out there, and i'm struggling figuring out what is a good replacement that isn't $800 a wheel.
I've seen reman ones, and there are options to send mine out to be refurbished, but I'd rather order a set and install them.
Am I overthinking it? or is it actually complicated to not get a set that is super expensive?
(this is not a daily driver, but an occasional driver, and occasional HPDE car)
Thanks!
