No, US spec 535i used 348x30 rotors with different calipers.
You would need a US 550i or a EU spec 535i/d to have 348x36 rotors and the same calipers that is used for 374x36 rotors (30/36 is rotor thickness).
All details and part numbers in my post on the first page in this thread: f10.5post.com |
Ok sorry yeah lot of numbers and info exchanged back and forth over 4 pages. Found a set of calipers with carriers on ebay showing those part numbers so trying to determine if its worth the hassle. I have 20 inch 5 spoke wheels and stock rotors and calipers just dont complement them. I did the M5 brake swap on my E60 550i and it wasnt bad but my OCD with painting makes my life difficult. But they came out looking really good. So Ill have to think about it and decide. I would go with the OEM drilled rotors that are about 700 for the set.
