I will be installing the 21 inch 7 series wheel in summer.
I also got my hands on a set of used M550i M sport brakes. Based on my research, the 530e is offered with M sport brakes, but they're not the same size (different part numbers) to the standard M sport brakes offered on M550i (they have bigger rotors). No idea about the M sport brakes in the 540i or if the ones you got were from another 540i.
How was the swap? I reckon it was a direct bolt on, what do you think about M550i brakes in a 530e? Do you think they will fit without any modifications?
Finally, did you swap the calipers yourself? Did you end up buying new pads and rotors or used existing ones from the previous set up. OEM or aftermarket, and cost?
Sorry, I know these are a lot of questions and I'm glad I saw your post.
Looking forward to your response,
Cheers! |
Did you mount the brakes and tires on your car yet?
I wanted to see pictures of those 650M style wheels on a G30.
