Help ID these brakes

Post by Dan101smith »

Does anyone recognise these brakes - they came as part of a set with M5/M635 fronts.

RealOEM suggests they're not M5 or M635 as it lists the one piece callipers as are fitted to my car currently.

They look like E23 rear calipers to suit the vented rotor option

After a bit more digging I suspect that they are E12 callipers, from an E12 based E24.

Yes, they do appear to be E12 based E24 rear calipers :-"
