that deserves a write-up! the e46 rear rotor isn't too much larger than the stock rotors, something like 0.5" greater in radius. the calipers/rotors should be the same up front. (they are for the coupe anyway). how will you get DSC and ABS to cooperate?

while i think that brake retrofit is a great idea, imo 19" wheels on the e46 also make the rear rotors look tiny on that car too. my 2 cents worth.

do the brake retro either way. you can be our guiniea pig.
