Well ... I just wanted to thank you all for your advice, the brakes fitted just right without any chance to hit the rims ... this can confirm to anyone who wills to install the same system on his car in the future. Cheers to you all ...

Glad it's working out. How does it feel? How does it look? Here's a good link to brake upgrade info: e34 brakes

However, if you plan in installing the E31 Brembos on an M5, you'll need to modify the rotor to accomodate the rotor locating pin in the M5 hubs.

Is this true? I've read a lot of info on this upgrade and that modification isn't mentioned anywhere I've looked.

TIA,Greg

well ... first it didn't feel that strong ... sure cuz I had to bed them ... after bedding the brakes it felt much stronger ... the difference is that u need to apply less pressure for the same amount of braking of the old system. also braking from high speeds to zero is way better ...
I know this link from Brunos website " the note there was to use 17" rims" and that's why I started this post from the first place.

this upgrade was made for my dads car E32 735i, the car have the 740i 96 16" rims.

as for me I had those long time ago with 4 piston calipers.
