Will standard CSL brakes fit E46 325ci MSport?

Rick H · 19-07-2013, 09:53 PM

Does anyone know if I can fit standard CSL disc/calipers on my E46 325 vert (should i go for a bbk on the CSL)? The vert has standard 18" MV2 wheels.

Any help appreciated.

Yes the discs and calipers will fit ok

BBK is a must if not for better braking for the looks

Hi,

If I remember correctly the caliper
carrier has to be machined which is
not good, and the 'X' clearance on the
wheels will be the other issue.

M3/CSL runs different hub flanges than
325 etc.

['X' Clearance is rear of wheel spokes]
