BMW E92 M3 Big Brake Conversion Kit DIY (2008-2012 BMW M3 to F82 M4 Brembo Caliper Conversion)

[@Zodiam.]

I did this swap on my E92 335i with adapter plates F&R and 135i hubs in the rear, a fantastic upgrade over the stock E9x brakes even just with OEM rotors and pads. I do love watching you wrench Gareth.

Great vid. Love to see a kit like this for the E46 m3

What a phenomenal video, honestly

Jesus... that rear backing plate.

[@GarethFoley]

Trimming backing plates never works the way you want. But the new slip in backing plate with the incorporated spacer is *chefs kiss*.

[@zildog]

@@GarethFoley No, I get it... I mean, what other choice did you have? Now. About that F8X rear hub overhaul...

[@GarethFoley]

@@zildog We redesigned something that works much better instead. Invention from necessity. F8X wheel hub conversion is next up though.

@@GarethFoley Legend. 🤜🏻🔥🤛🏼

[@AndrewCJohnston]

Gareth, The backing plate and spacer is not yet listed with the kit on FCPEuro. Customer service still is also saying to trim the backing plate. Can you tell us how to get the backing plate and spacer? Thanks and your videos rock and FCPEuro is hands down the best!

How do I go about working out clearance for my aftermarket wheels on my E92 M3 for this brake upgrade kit? What can I use as a template as I am currently running 18” BBS RI-As? I would appreciate any advice as this kit would be perfect for my needs …

[@anthonyricci1205]

Interesting that the F8x spindles and wheel hubs can be retrofitted on a E9x chassis. Has anyone tried making them work on the E6x M?

[@ConeheadKidd]

Dude you got old, so did I 🤣🤣🤣 lols still a legend in book.

I’m going to be a hater and turn my nose up at the wheel hub swap. And the brake wiring tinkering. I looked up the kit and saw that part and price and ya uh huh nope. You forgot the Dead blow hammers in the required tools list lol.
