[QUOTE="Schwepps, post: 364785, member: 3592"] Really? Y'know, that's interesting and why would they do that? I've always thought that the E9x is so balanced that more of the gripping and braking load goes to the rear than we think. The wider rear wheels for the 325 upwards are not just for looks, and I found out by measurement that my rear tyres wear at a much faster rate than my fronts. The Porsche 911 setup is actually designed that way, with extra fat wheels and braking bias to the rear. Your earlier comments about bias and imbalance if only the front PBs are fitted make a lot of sense. :top: I'd better follow velocity's advice and give way to E90s with only big yellow brakes at the front too. And not follow one too closely either! :D [/QUOTE]
