F30 335 calipers on e90

[newby46]

Hey gents

Looking to upgrade my front brakes.
I have currently got vari slotted front disk and ebc yellow pads but looking for a bit more

Read up a bit that the f30 335 front 2 pod calipers are a straight bolt on e90

Has any body been this route

seems like you need maybe different pad / disc compound...........

have you upgraded your lines...........

what about size and weight of your wheels. maybe look at lightweight first

its not a direct fit..

the caliper carrier is different and the size of the disk is different too, so if you were to upgrade you would need


calipers/
Disks
Pads
Sensors
Calliper carriers

Also the M135 and the F3x are different sizes

Wheels I have 18 inch oem msport rims so possibly something to consider

Would e90 M3 oem disks,calipers be worth investing in ???

Apologies, i thought you wanted to upgrade all the brakes/calipers....

however, this is a very interesting article for those interested in doing the F series upgrade...
