Brake disk size

[KarshS]

Hi Guys,

What is the size of the brake disks the e46 320i model uses?
Is it the same across all 320s or does the msport use a bigger size?

How are the ATE disks? not sure what the original disks on a BMW.

Thanks

Try ATE website . IMHO they are the same . I fitted ATE front and back on my e36 328i , find front rims dirty each week .Brakes ok .

286mm up front, 276mm in the back. Same sizes for the 320i and 323i.

328i also has the same size not sure about the 4 cyl

If you are going to be doing your brakes, do it properly and get 330i brakes :grin:

Thanks for the reply’s guys.....

Has anyone tried these guys?

They are in Durban but will do free delivery to your door.

They quoted me:

Brakes:
ATE Brake pads: R409.96
ATE Front Disk: R236.55 x 2

And a new radiator R799.

New style wipers: R99 each.

That is damn cheap. They said order will take 2 working days to deliver in PTA....

I would love to have the 330i Brakes but cost of changing the callipers will cost too much...

What you guys think about this disks??

Now I wish I could have seen something like this sooner..

I replaced all my disks & pads with ate the other day ..


Total came to R2152 for 4 disks & 8 pads from Midas

But then again its a 318i so I assume its smaller

I don't know about those discs, the holes don't seem properly spaced for some reason (the cross drilled holes) :thinking:

moranor it wasn't me, it was haynes manual:rollsmile:

no worries thanks for putting me right... interestingly is seems the Ci and touring have the larger disks also from the quick search i did to see if the haynes was right...

i would not fit X drilled rotor to a street car 90% of them crack before they wear out...
