E39 M5 brakes on an E30

[Cypriotgeeza]

Has anyone done or know of anyone who has these calipers on an E30?

I know the E34 M5 ones will fit with the right size wheels and modified carriers but not so sure of the E39.

I've searched both Google and the wiki and found no mention of it, so I'm wondering whether its not achievable due to needing very big wheels for them to fit behind

Only reason I'm asking is I've come across a set of E39 M5 calipers for nothing which need reconditioning.

Thanks in advance

I have done it
315mm rears
Virtually impossible
Need custom bearings as the hub diameter is bigger

What about front calipers with bigger discs which would still be 4 stud?

There is bigger disc set-ups out there that are for 4stud hubs
