Brembo is showing a different part number for M5 front, its 1B1.9001A not 2A. Are you sure it will work?

Thanks nick for the input
These Big Brake Kit set new would cost over $6K at any Brembo distributor. This is a great deal

Yes, I'm running 5mm spacers in the rear
No squeeling issues at all

Any squeeling issues with the brakes?
Also, I noticed you're using different bolts on your rear wheels. The heads on them are convex rather than concave like the stock bolts.
Were you running spacers? Where did you get those bolts from?

I'm pretty sure that these brakes will last for a long time. I just got the shop to check on all four pads this morning when putting on new wheels, I was told that the pads are like new; still over 95% left
