Question On Stock BMW Brakes???

MTL-E90 · 11-11-2005, 05:05 PM

I'm not to sure if the 325i brakes size are any different from the 330i brakes??? But I'm in the process of purchasing the new 325i.

My question is. If i go the route of purchasing aftermarket rims 18's or possibly 19's will I need to upgrade my brakes??

Will my brakes still brake effectively with such large wheels on???

thanks in advance,

nick

Look like to me the disc on 330i is bigger. Anyone confirms that?

Here are the specs:
325F = 11.8"
330F = 13.0"
325R = 11.8"
330R = 13.2" (yes larger than the front)
