    ::.. Urgent Query - Brake Caliper Size (stock)

    What is the stock front and rear caliper size for the 89 535i? I realize 'stock' is relative, but assuming if everything is original size like the rotors...

    Length, Width, Depth?

    Don't need to be absolutely precise but a close number is good. Thanks!

    Can't tell you more than this atm- and this is just rotor sizes, are you seriuously asking about caliper sizes?

    front 302mm dia, 20mm wide braking surface
    rear 300mm dia, 10mm wide braking surface

    Differences are on 540i and M-cars.

    540i are the same as most e32 (except late 730 and 735 (12mm rear) and some 750s); ie 28mm wide at front and 20mm wide at rear with the same diameters as above.

    Calipers are designed and sized to fit the car's rotor width and diameter, plus the mountings on the car... e32 has a different rear rotor, caliper and mount. Nick

    If you are really talking about caliper dimensions, don't worry, a can of high temperature red will cover 4 calipers
