Posts: 701 | Ate High Performance Big Brake Kit I'm happy to announce I just received my Ate BBK I got fom VITESSE TUNING. It's huge! 326mm x 30mm (13" x 1 3/16") 2-piece grooved rotors with aluminum hats and 4 piston calipers with the pads already installed. Each piston is 40mm (1 9/16") diameter. Everything is included: brackets, Goodridge teflon coated stainless brake lines, OE brake wear sensor, hardware and easy to follow instructions. It is made specifically to match the OE brake sytem; ABS etc. Actually, Ate makes all BMW OE brake parts. Even the packaging is impressive. Those Germans! The kit has not officially been launched in NA and I am the first in NA with a kit for BMW. I can't wait to install it and put the car on the track!

All replacement parts are available, but you'd have to contact VITESSE TUNING for prices. You need a minumum 17" wheel on order to clear the caliper. I got the kit for $2199.99. It normally sells for $2495.

Posts: 701 | I spoke to the guys at VITESSE TUNING and they're willing to sell the Ate BBK to members of this forum at $2199.99 plus shipping. I'll post some pics as soon as I have the chance to install it.
