would 550i rear brake fit 528i rear brake?

tofuflower · 05-26-2016, 09:04 PM

Hi all,
Been trying to figure out would the F10 550i rear brake fit the F10 528i(N20).
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Are the calipers the same? just different rotor size? if just rotor size different.
Does that mean all i need is to change the rotor disc?
Thank you in advance!
Sorry all I can find is topics about the M5 brake switch.

doubt, check realoem.com
check the part numbers.

Different sized rotors require different sized calipers and pads. I'm sure you would need to change them all. Also, the larger rotors won't clear 17" wheels. I'm sure you have larger wheels if you're considering a brake upgrade, but just another point.

I'm running APEX 19' wheels. Although my car came with the Msport package and the stock wheels were already 19's.
