Brake Rotor Source for E12-based 1981 Euro 635csi?

Post by ByronB »

I am having great difficulty finding rotors anywhere for my 02/1981 635csi euro. I got pads from FCP Euro but like everyone else, they have no rotors. Can anyone please suggest a source for me? According to Real OEM, the part numbers that fit my car are 34111163129 for fronts and 34216890341 for rears. THANK YOU!

Please provide an update on what you find. This was discussed last year. Good luck

Thank you Ralph! I had searched this topic several times before posting, but I somehow missed that thread from 2021. It was that thread where I learned about a classic BMW part source that I had not heard of before, WALLOTHNESCH.COM and this is who I ordered the front rotors from. Believe it or not the fronts are no longer available from BMW! I ordered the rear rotors from BMW because I could not find them anywhere else.
