We'll just have to wait and see. We'll be sure to discount the prices as much as possible for y'all, as usual.

Any kits in stock for the front for a 328?

Autobot · 11-07-2008, 12:15 PM

Do you know when / if they are planning on a rear kit for the 328's? What do replacement pads go for? Do you have a PN# for pads?

Also had another question, What about brake lines? No Stainless Steel ones? Should that not be a part of these? Just curious.

Does the dealer need to reprogram my car at all with the new brakes installed if I install them myself or is that not an issue?
Thanks

The brake pads themselves are the identical part between the stock 135i and the performance package.

True but the rotors for the 135i differs from the performance brake kit for the E90. The i35i front rotors are not slotted and drilled unlike the performance brake kit. However, calipers look similar as mentioned, just different color.

Just ordered, We shall see how they are in a week or so

You ordered just the front or the whole kit (front/rear)???

Autobot · 11-13-2008, 11:45 PM

Just front, rears are not available yet according to Evan

oh ok. I am still waiting for the full kit. The fronts look awesome. You are going to love them.

BzsBimmer · 11-24-2008, 02:08 PM

Are these available for the 325i guys. All I see mentioned is the 330 and 328

All I was speaking about were the calipers since Jason stated "These are not the same calipers that are standard on the 135i, either. These are the BMW Performance yellow 6-piston calipers, which are significantly larger than the stock 135i calipers. Totally different part number, appearance, and size as well." This comment is not true, the calipers are functionally the same and are the same size (a far cry from "significantly larger") and I would contend are identical with different cosmetics (grey versus yellow and different lettering).

The rear rotors on a 135i are indeed different than a 330i and can't be used on a 135i.

Regards,

Rich

But for someone like me putting them on a 328 they are a large improvment over the stock calipers.

Just got mine last night but will not be able to put them on until the first weekend in December

Yes, that was my point - they are an improvement on the vehicles that they are meant for. Apparently the calipers are aesthetically identical to the 135i calipers(color and badging aside), but you can't always judge a book by its cover. Honestly don't know if they're truly identical in function.

GeekinE90 · 11-27-2008, 06:26 AM

The full BMW Performance brake system front and rear should fit the standard E90 325i/328i as they fit the E90 330i. The hub/wheel carrier part nos are identical between these three cars.

I suspect that in the ETK its listed fronts only for the 325/328i unlike full system for 330i as it was meant for matching cars which comes default with staggered setup which is true for E90 330i (in some markets 325i doesn't come with staggered wheel setup). I.e. rear 2 pot performance brakes for cars with wider rear wheels + tyres only for optimal/balanced braking performance. But it should fit, and there is little difference chassis/suspension linkages wise between the E90 325/328i and 330i.

I'd be curious to know the results of first brave soul who tried to fit the full brake system on an E90 325i/328i.
