Rear Disk Conversion - What Pads & Disks????

[danny_j]

I've had a BMW Cab 318 Design for a few months and its now time to replace the Disks and Pads.

I've been told that 318 Designs didn't come with Rear Disks so now i'm a little stuck?

What setup would have been used on the rear?

The disks are solid and not very big and ultimately 4 stud?

put the front disks on the back with new pads, and put a big brake kit on the front...

Zone shop can get you big brake kits. I have just put wilwoods on this afternoon, they rule.

hope this helps... pm me if u want more info

If the car wasn't made with rear discs, then someone's done a conversion.
Discs will proobably be ordinary OE 325 or touring ones, available from ECP or GSF, and any reputable make of pad will do.
Have you got ABS? This was an option on all E30's, and all ABS cars have rear discs.

if your doing it yourself just strip out the old pads and disks take them to your local car parts shop and get em to match them up
