so I can't get my ti to pass inspection until I get my rear brakes redone, and at least pads in the front. First, I'm still not entirely familiar w/ this car (or BMWs in general). I've skimmed a few posts here about upgrades beyond the stock setup, and have noticed bigger brakes being installed w/ larger wheel sizes.
- I was planning on new wheels anyway. Size, dunno yet (17?)... not sure how easy it is to just swap them (what's this rolling the fender talk? that's another forum, I know...).
- if I have to get new brakes, what's recommended for upgrading on a smaller budget?? I'm talking rear pads, rotors, and I think calipers. Fronts, just pads, but if other front components are recommended w/o breaking the bank, I'm all ears.
- where's a reputable / non-overpriced source to purchase this stuff?
actually if you just want to tell me what to buy, that'd be cool too
thanks!
