Again, the F10 rear breaks are just fitting with 20" wheels or with 19" M5 wheels.
I found a solution for a 370 mm rear brake upgrade with OEM BMW parts, but this is really not necessary. This would be just for show&shine w/o any benefits on normal (German) streets.
I made several tests on our German Autobahn with the F10 front and OEM rear size setup and this is working very good -> also at speeds >270 km/h.
If anybody is interested in a 375mm or a 396 mm solution for the front, pls. contact me. My adapter brackets are cheaper than 700 $.

As to E-brake there is one from the UK. You might need to do a bit of investigating

These are M6 replica wheels.
The rear brakes solution is really looking great but they would be not possible to make street legal for Germany. Real pity.

Also M6 replicas. But they also look really great on the Z4.



This is my new setup for the summer:















I actually installed 5 mm spacers at the rear, which is not enough. A friend of mine has the same setup with 10 mm spacers, which is a bit too much in my opinion. I have found a supplier for 8 mm spacers - I will try this next.



In addition, the rear bumper add ons are finished.
