hi guys i wanna upgrade my brakes, well for looks only.

I know m5 brakes are bolt on but the replacement cost is extremely high. Has anyone upgraded their 530i brakes to 545i brakes? i know the front and the rear rotors are bigger compared to 530i

 

Yes, can direct bolt on without issue.

 

You'll need complete brakes, meaning rotors and calipers, and brake lines too.

 

thank you ricky, one question thought, do i only need the calipers/rotors?

or do i need the carriers/lines/dust shields also?

what about the rear?

 

You need calipers/carriers/rotors. Others no need. You can also change to Stainless Steel Brake Lines if like. Front and rear in same case.

 

ricky one question, have u done this urself? if yes, did u notice any improvement in braking?


thanks guys!!

 

if you wish, for looks, we carry some aftermarket rotors that are OEM-sized direct replacements that can be custom drilled, slotted, or both drilled and slotted.

 

Did it from stealer, There are some DIY post thread.
Braking improved ; faster response ; shorter stop distance than stock.

 

+1 You will need to do a brake flush after to get air outta the system.


Sachal its really not a hard job to tackle, I would say less then 4 hours if you took your time. And cost wise yes they are a lot better compared to M5 setup.

 

thank you everybody, i will be doing this and making a how to, for others to follow.

13 rotors behind a 19/20 inch rims look tiny!!
