User Name 19 Report post Posted August 17, 2008 hay guys i recently got some brakes off hellbm (thanks ray) but the one thing that is confusing me is both brakes have the same part number and they dont match up to any of part numbers i can find, the part number i can see off the caliperis 60 28 309 -im not doubting ray at allthat they are theright brakes just dont want to go and buy rotors then find out they dont fit, the brakes are sposed to be off a 540i, still think its weird they have same part number that shouldnt matter at all right cheersguys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E34 540's are 300x28 aren't they? Sounds about right then. Edited August 17, 2008 by E30-323ti Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike 1 Report post Posted August 18, 2008 They should be the right items, 60 will be the piston size. ie mine say 57/25 and have 57mm bore and 25mm rotors. and glenns right with the 540i rotor size too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
