M3 Calipers on 335i

diego18br · 04-26-2021, 01:44 PM

Hey guys. I tried to search but I'm struggling a whole lot. I want to do a m3 brake conversion on my 335i. I can't seem to find e90 Brake calipers anywhere. Anyone know where I can locate?

If I remember correctly there's not much of an upgrade from 335. More aggressive pads are a far cheaper and better option.

Can someone confirm?

Just make sure you get the M3 hubs/knuckles with it as the caliper bracket mounting IS different' and the M3 strut assembly(or adapters) for front as the diameters are also different

An M3 part out is the best way to get each part or try car-part.com

^^ IIRC its 360mm vs 348mm front and 350mm vs 336mm for the rear; And the calipers have a slightly larger pistons

What a waste this would be. M3 brakes utilize the same brake pad. Just slightly bigger rotor. Better of with brakes from F series platform.
