The 128i shoes are smaller in diameter. Otherwise everything bolts on (caliper & rotor).
The proper fix requires 135i knuckle with 135i back plate and Hub and 135i hand brake shoes.

Some one on e90post has made e90 work using cusom expanded brake shoes instea of the whole back plate/knucle approach
Interesting. I'm trying to do the same thing. I'm using the BMW Performance rotors for the E90. It fits the E90 330 and the E91 and E93 328. It should fit the xi as well but they may have suspension arms in the way.

I'm using the ebrake from a 330. To get it to fit, I'm using the mounting plate for the 330 as well. I'll have to modify that so it fits my 325. Let's see how it works out.
