OEM BMW Peformance E82/88 1 Series Cross Drilled Rotors

Alex_bm · 08-28-2010, 08:25 AM

Have any-one got those for 128 for the front wheels? If so, did you upgrade the rest of the components or just the rotors. I am looking to improve the looks and braking performance.

I got them for the 135. the cross drill is useless. it plugs up in no time. the slots however remain beneficial.

I am curious if they will work with other hardware used with smaller rotors

That pissed me off when I upgraded the breaks on my Jag (and didn't know any better).

If the rotors are bigger, then you will need new calipers and associated hardware as well. Even if you could make it fit, the pads wouldn't be using the whole rotor surface (because they are too small) so there would be no mechanical benefit to doing such a thing.
