    294MM brakes fit under 17" wheel?

    E36 offset so the spokes should not be in the way. The rotors are 19 mm thick which seem small for an aftermaket set up.

      Ok was looking at a front set up but seems the rotors are rather thin for the size. It's off a E46 330 Brembo setup that I had planned to use on an E36 strut.

        Never mind no point in spending this amount of money when simple effective E36 M3 front brakes will work.

          just a FYI, stock for stock the m3 produces roughly only 7% more braking torque than the 330i

          *using the same master cylinder, pad compound, pedal ratio and booster size/power

              i think that's a rear kit though

              i had unboosted 330i brakes on my v8 car (all four corners) and holy shit they were strong, can't imagine what it'd be like with a booster

                  I was able to fit 302x28 mm in the front and 312x20 mm in the rear under my 16" wheels.

                  There should be no problem fitting a 294 mm rotor with a 17" wheel.
