Ok, but normally a privat person pays about 3495Euro including tax and delivery for the 342mm set. Wich is worth every penny. I use this set more then 3 years now on my M5. You wont need a set for the rear. Just replace the pads for something good and off you go!

I am not saying it is cheap, but it is worth the money. If you are looking for only a replacement for the standard brakes it is not interresting. If you want bigger brakes because off the better looks, look for something else, but if you want to use the car as a trackday car, or just want to go for the best, than you are in the marked for a big brake kit like Mov'it.

If you go from 300mm to 328mm in the rear, then you have to changes the protection plates right ? And then you need new bearings to ?

In the front itīs the same plates with 315 and 345mm

Yes, absolutely correct.

Took my guys about 20 minutes to change each of the front brakes, but about 6 hours to change the rears.

Cheers
