They havn't warped yet. Look good. Stop pretty well, I need to flush my brake fluid and bleed to really know. I would spend the money on better stuff though. I don't really trust them too much, but they havn't let me down. Tough call, if your on a budget then they are ok. __________________ 1998 318ti active, 5spd.

Please let me know if I did my homework right You'll want to be sure that adding such large, additional stopping power in the front doesn't acually degrade overall brake performance by upsetting the brake bias of the car. If you're not planning to upgrade the rears, you should definitely inquire about possible implications to overall system bias. | | | 06-03-2008, 10:40 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Land of the Vikings Posts: 2,700 | great you have chosen a 330i disc of 315mm but a caliper set of 300 mm youŽd be one unhappy camper when they came home fella __________________ Vin Number decode and Retrofit Pdfs Available Free !

Thus bigger size, the 99-00 E46's are smaller. __________________ BMWCCA #403399 2012 Mini Cooper S Clubman, 6-Speed Loaded 2001 325xi, Winter Package, 5-Speed Traded 1998 318ti, Active, Automatic, TOTAL LOSS R.I.P. 10/20/08 Bilstein Sport Shocks/Struts .
