First of all, you aren't selling 4 rotors that are 300x30mm from the pictures you have. You are selling a complete stock E28 M5 brake kit with 114k. First let me say the rears are worth nothing. They are the same calipers and rotors and pads as on any US E28 out there. There is nothing special about them. Second, you are selling used front calipers with 114k. No matter what you say about the condition they will need to be rebuilt. Third, you can purchase ATE reman units with all new seals for $500ea. So your price is a little high. BTW, I purchased M5 front calipers (which is pretty much the only thing you are selling that is worth anything) for $250ea. I then rebuilt them myself at a cost of about $30 a side and then bought new rotors and pads because I will never use someone elses used rotors and pads.

Someone wrote to upgrade to M5 rear brakes on My 6-ser. But if these rear brakes are common to regular 535i's, what did they mean? Any idea...
