sorry but please read the thread. there is no exact information in that thread. the only thing I gathered from that thread is that I need to run 19" wheels and I need "fabricating brackets"
the exact steps:
- fabricate brackets that adapt the E60 caliper to the E39 knuckle.
- bore rotor center to 74.1mm
- install rotors/calipers
- bleed brakes
Basically, if you're asking, it's going to cost you more to have all the parts custom fabricated than it would to just buy an off-the-shelf BBK.
Couldnt have said it better myself. AND you'd still need 19" wheels for them to fit as the calipers are just that bulky.the exact steps:

Those will fit over stock E39 brakes and Brembo BBK's. The E60 disc/caliper wont clear 18" wheels so far as I know. Hence the E60 coming with 19" wheels from factory. It'd be cheaper to just get a set of used brembos and call it a day.I saw someone who had mounted 18 inch rims Mpar. hence my question.
