[QUOTE="SilverBullet, post: 460126, member: 11244"] these brakes are basically designed for greater stopping capability since it's made for a 4.4L V8 car, as compared to the brakes on regular engined models..for instance, looking at the size of the calipers shows how big it is if u put it next to a 523's calipers..hence, these 545i calipers has more surface area for greater friction, and also it provides more gripping capability on the brake disc.. just my 2 cents.. if i have a 5 series, i'd surely upgrade my brakes to these..they're the next best thing after M5 and Brembo's..plus they're OEM, hence should be quite straight forward to install..too bad i'm just driving a shabby e46..:( [/QUOTE]
