Fitting M Performance calipers onto standard wheels

[c-square]

View attachment 30029Guys, do you thinks these M Perfromance calipers can be fitted directly (direct swap) onto the stock factory-fitted brake rotors on the style 392 wheels without any modification? Just the calipers without even changing the rotors into those M Performance cross-drilled rotors.

The wheel sizing of the style 392 wheels is 7 1/2J x 17 running on 225/50 R17 tyres

taukey C-kuasa 2 ... i don't think so bro ...ya need to have the right rotors too

No it wouldn't fit on a 17"

No it wouldn't fit on a 17"

Why is that?

 

[kolamp]

Because Performance caliper can only fit the bigger performance rotors....if performance caliper coupled with smaller diameter rotor, ur pad won't fully bite the rotors & defeat the purpose of having the performance caliper...

 

[maroonbug]

The rotors and calipers are too big for a 17" bro

thanks for the clarification guys

 

[c-square]

May I ask, what's the minimum size wheel that can accommodate those M Performance brake calipers and rotors?

 

[maroonbug]

18", but it also depends on spoke design and offset. The only way to know for sure is to fit it on or use a cut out measurement.

bro it should but i think the rears will be too narrow for your car? I think e36/46 only 245 max?

With 8.5j or 9J 18 inch rim its possible to mount 255 35 18 on those beauties hence its possible to be fitted on e90/92 with big brake kit. Agree with maroonbug it also depending on rim design. Vossen or BBS will fit without issues.
