I am going with e46 325/328 calipers/rotors all around except for the rear which will have the adapter for 300mm rotor - front is also 300mm, it should be well balanced and the MC for the 318ti stock is very similar to the stock e46 one so pedal pressure/feel should be fine too. (My car is just m52 swapped ti, daily/street car)


I am running E30 arms, axles, and bearings. That's why I am using the 294mm instead of the 128i brakes(300mm). If you are retaining the Ti hubs etc., then that 300mm kit looks great as well. Many people go back and forth about balance and bias but I feel like if that's an issue, it's not a big deal to install a proportioning valve. I have done that on other cars in the past. I may even ditch the abs unit altogether and do that anyway.
