*Planning* - cross drilled brakes and suspension
Hi,
I'm in the process of planning as it's winter and i said i wont do any more mods. I'm looking to buy a set of rim's prob in may just before it gets warm. I was considering buying the Koni FSD, but my question would i be able to adjust these in winter time? or is my only solution coil overs? I'm not looking to go with coils just because I don't do any track and think it might be a bit of a waste. but if i can't adjust the ride height then i'll def. be going this route. Also Looking to install Cross drilled brakes as I love how these look. (I'll be painting my calipers as well), any suggestions on where i should start looking for these? I have e90 pre-lci 328i. |

cross drilled/slotted rotors won't make a noticeable difference in day to day driving.. changing the pad type will have a much larger affect on braking.

I have the stoptech drilled and they look great and improved fading noticeably.
Would not trust at track because of all the bad rap about cracking drilled rotors. The FSD-eibach kit are not height adjustable. There may be some options for adjustable springs that are not in a coilover set, but I've not heard of any. |

ECS Tuning also has new Geomet Cross-Drilled/Slotted or just Slotted rotors with special coating so no rust - and they are on sale right now for good price.
They have applications for couple different models - if you're not sure what sizes you have, just email them and they will check. Sometimes even given same model - rotor sizes are year/build date specific. I ordered a full set for my 328iX... http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=687835
