E46 M3 Big Brake Kits

[ian840]

Id like to hear what some of you have to say about big brake kits for the E46 M3.
I have been investigating some different options...The Brembo's look really nice and Ive heard endless good things about them, but they dont have anything for the rear axle so youre stuck with getting the black calipers unless you want to put red brembos up front and keep the little black factory calipers in back which wouldnt look too good. Hamman's kit really caught my attention, they have 380mm front discs, versus brembo's 355mm front discs. AND, they have a rear system to match, red calipers with 322mm discs. The only downside of the 380mm front discs is that youre going to need at least 18's, more likely 19's which Im planning on anyways. Check them out at http://www.hamann-motorsport.de/homee.htm go to the E46 Saloon to see the brakes. Or there is Movit http://www.movit.de/ but I just started to check these out so cant tell you much about them, except for they are the people behind porsche's legendary brake systems.

Ok wow...I did a little reading and the Movit system is incredible. Front 380mm discs with six piston calipers. They said this system is stronger than their own ceramic brakes.
Like whoa.
Probably send your eyeballs through the windshield with these bad boys!
